Title
Application of discrete transforms with selective coefficients for blind image watermarking
Abstract
AbstractAbstractWatermarking scheme is not helpful in conveying the original image continually so as identifying the owner's mark from the watermarked image. In the current situation, our chosen topic is significant in real‐time applications like fraud recognition, emergency clinic, and government divisions. In this study, an optimal multiblind watermarking model is proposed for the watermark detection process. Our proposed model is a combination of intelligent domain transforms like Discrete Shearlet Transform and Discrete Curvelet Transform (DCurT). The imperceptibility necessity of the plan is accomplished utilizing optimal coefficients that are performed by applying in DCurT with metaheuristic optimization model that is Grasshopper Algorithm. It is played by a chasing behavior of gathering of grasshoppers and cooperation process, here, Random Grasshopper Optimization is utilized for watermarking. The secret image is embedded with a lower band of optimal coefficients with DCurT, and here, the band is DCur (1, 5). The secret data is embedded in the host images to make it secure, and then, the extraction of the embedding process takes place inversely. For experimentation analysis, 20 digital images are considered, and different attacks are applied in the proposed watermarking model. Thus, the watermarked image looks lossless compared with the host image. Moreover, recent literary works and domain transform are also utilized for strength investigation of the proposed watermarking model.
