Abstract

In this paper, a robust watermarking scheme using optimization watermarking technique is proposed. In the proposed scheme, the watermark image is to embed in the SCS transform domain. The advantage is that they are able to detect malicious tampering while being robust against content-preserving processes such as compression, filtering and Salt and pepper noise, and we plotted graphs for average payload versus bitplanes to show the image quality for higher resolutions and studied PSNR, MSE for images.
