Abstract
We propose a novel multipurpose watermarking scheme, in which robust and fragile watermarks are simultaneously embedded, for copyright protection and content authentication. By quantizing a host image's wavelet coefficients as masking threshold units (MTUs), two complementary watermarks are embedded using cocktail watermarking and they can be blindly extracted without access to the host image. For the purpose of image protection, the new scheme guarantees that, no matter what kind of attack is encountered, at least one watermark can survive well. On the other hand, for the purpose of image authentication, our approach can locate the part of the image that has been changed and tolerate some incidental processes that have been executed. Experimental results show that the performance of our multipurpose watermarking scheme is indeed superb in terms of robustness and fragility. Keywords: Robust watermarking, Copyright protection, Fragile watermarking, Authentication. 1 1 Introduction C...
