A Strong Robust Zero-Watermarking Scheme Based on Shearlets’ High Ability for Capturing Directional Features

الملخص EN

Zero-watermarking is a blind digital watermarking method.

It has reached the point where the robustness and the imperceptibility can arrive at a good balance.

In this paper, a strong robust zero-watermarking scheme is proposed which employs multiresolution and multiscale representation characteristics of nonsubsampled shearlet transform to analyze the direction features of the given image.

The effectiveness of the proposed scheme for dealing with many kinds of attack such as compression, noise addition, and scaling is demonstrated by the experimental results.

When compared with other zero-watermarking schemes using counterpart transforms like discrete wavelet transform, the experimental results show that the proposed watermarking scheme can get better performance.
