An algorithm to improve the robustness of imperceptible watermarks against JPEG compression
This paper proposes a novel watermarking algorithm in digital images to ensure the imperceptible characteristics of the watermarks, reducing the effects on images quality while maintaining recoverability. The proposed method is performed by embedding watermarks in the DCT domain. DCT coefficients, which are selected to be embedded, or not, are based on an evaluation of watermark robustness during the quantization phase of the JPEG Baseline method. Results of the algorithm have been evaluated using Matlab.
