Abstract

In the past few years, many gray-level image watermarking schemes have been proposed, although the extension to the color case is rare and regularly accomplished by marking the image luminance, or by processing each color channel separately. This paper presents a new color image watermarking scheme that combines color edge detection and color quantization using principal axes analysis in three-dimensional color space. The watermark is hidden within the data by modifying a subset of carefully selected edge points to resist both geometric distortion and signal processing attacks. Experimental results show the robustness of the proposed scheme to resist common attacks.
