1 CHAPTER-6 WATERMARKING OF JPEG IMAGES 6.1 INTRODUCTION In the Chapter 4, we have discussed that we can improve the robustness of DCT and DWT based watermarking schemes against some well known attacks by preprocessing the images. Since, Fingerprinting is the most crucial demand of today, we developed an ICAR scheme for the watermarking of gray level images also. We further expanded our scope for the colored images watermarking in Chapter 5 and developed an ICAR scheme for watermarking of 24-bit colored BMP images. Since, most of the images present on World Wide Web are in JPEG format, which is a highly compressed image format and store the images in the transformed domain, i.e. store the frequencies not the pixels values, we decided to develop an ICAR watermarking scheme for JPEG images. We also explored a relationship between the robustness and some of the image characteristics. 6.2 DEVELOPMG AN ICAR WATERMARKING ALGORITHM FOR JPEG IMAGES Most of the images present on WWW are in the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) format where as relatively less work is found for watermarking the JPEG images. Therefore, we decided to extend our earlier proposed ICAR schemes for the watermarking of JPEG images also. In our earlier proposed ICAR schemes, we inserted the ICAR nature in by introducing redundancy in the coefficients swapping of FM region. We also made the swapping criteria dependent on some very robust data elements (in the scheme presented in Section 4.4, it was the relative value of low frequency coefficient and in the scheme presented in 5.3, it was the average value of all middle band coefficients) so that decoding algorithm may perform a good recovery of the watermark data. But as it may be observed that we deployed the coefficients of FM region which were generated by taking the 8 x 8 DCT of pixels values. So, to continue the same 97

2 approach for the JPEG images, we needed to use coefficients belonging to FM region. More pricelessly, JPEG image format does not store the pixel s actual value but it stores the image in frequency domain. So, we need to convert the JPEG image into spatial domain and then take 8x8 block DCT on its color channels to get the FM region. To inject the ICAR nature, we need to introduce redundancy in coefficient swapping. Since JPEG is a very high compressed format, we know that as soon as we convert this spatial domain image into JPEG format, lots of its coefficients will be changed. This would create problem in recovering the watermark data by only considering the relative strengths of coefficients of FM region. We must, therefore, provide extra robustness by involving some coefficients whose value does not change much during the conversion of spatial domain to frequency domain and vise versa. To resolve this issue, we decided to take the advantage of JPEG compression-decompression scheme itself. In an 8x8 DCT block, large value of the top-left corner is called the DC coefficient. The remaining 63 coefficients are called the AC coefficients. This DC coefficient is the major dominating value while decompressing. This DC value alone can regenerate the best approximated image by taking the IDCT. If this value is altered, then image is largely affected. So we decided to take the contribution of this DC coefficient apart from coefficients from FM region to interpret the watermark data to make our scheme robust. We have seen that in our earlier scheme, we developed a swapping criteria based on the average of all 22 coefficients of FM region by claiming that it was difficult for any attacker or for any image manipulation to alter this value significantly if the image has to remain perceptually similar. Therefore, for our newly proposed watermarking scheme for JPEG images, we interpreted the watermark data in FM region based on the average of 22 coefficients from FM region and the DC coefficient. More details of the watermark embedding algorithms are described in Section To ensure ICAR property, liker our earlier proposed schemes, we watermarked each copy of a single JPEG image with a different policy. The proposed watermarking scheme can be defined as a 7-tuple (X, W, P, T, G, E, D) where: 98

3 1. X denotes the set of instances X i, of a particular JPEG image, (If N copies of an image are to be watermarked, then 0 i N); 2. W denotes the monochrome watermark logo; 3. P denotes the set of policies P i, 0 i N; 4. T is the watermark strength parameter ; 5. G denotes the policy generator algorithm G: X i P i, where Each X i will have a unique P i, i.e. a different policy to hide the watermark data; 6. E denotes the watermark embedding algorithm, E: X i x W x P i X i ; 7. D denotes the watermark detection algorithm, D: X i x P i W, where W represents the extracted watermark. The parameter T is analogous to K of classical MBCE scheme. In classical MBCE scheme, relative strength of two coefficients value of FM region decides the decoding of 1 or 0. If the relative strength of two values has to decide the decoding of 0 or 1, then larger value should remain larger even after image manipulations. So, we adjust these values in such a way that the difference between the two values becomes larger than a certain threshold value. We name this threshold value as Watermark Strength Parameter because this value decides the robustness of watermark data. Certainly, it has an impact on the image perceptibly. So, we need to decide this threshold value in such a way that our image does not loose its quality much. The value of T may differ for each image. Out of these 7 tuples, last 3 tuples are algorithms, which are discussed below: G, THE POLICY GENERATOR ALGORITHM Similar to our earlier proposed ICAR watermarking scheme for the gray image watermarking and colored image watermarking, we need to watermark each copy X i of an JPEG image X differently. Therefore, we need a different watermarking policy for 99

4 each copy of the image to be watermarked. Here Policy means that, for every copy of the image, there will be unique combination of 4 middle band coefficients. First we had to convert the source JPEG image into its equivalent true colored 24-bit BMP image. Then, to generate a policy, we simply take 8 x 8 DCT of a chosen color channel of the input image X i and randomly select 4 coefficients out of 22 middle band coefficient of FM region from any of the red, green or blue color channel. So, numbers of policies that can be generated are 22 C 4 = 7315 which means that 7315 copies of a single image can be watermarked such that no two watermarked images have same policy. This step ensures that attacker can not conclude the location of watermark data by colluding many watermarked copies of an image. This also depicts that our proposed scheme is an ICAR scheme. Policy generator algorithm also returns the color channel to be used to carry the watermark COLOR CHANNEL SELECTION: Bossen et al. [9] have stated that the watermarks should be embedded mainly in the BLUE color channel of an image because human eye is least sensitive to change in BLUE channel. However, the suitability of color channel to hide the watermark data depends on the image itself. The color channel which should be used can be found on the basis of the amount of the color present in the image or on the basis of histogram of each color channel (i.e. color with spreader histogram should be given priority). We also know that for few images, BLUE channel may not give the optimum results. We, therefore propose that the color channel with the lowest Standard Deviation (SD) should be selected. More details of this finding and result related to this issue are given in the Section E, THE WATERMARK EMBEDDING ALGORITHM In this algorithm, each 8x8 DCT block of an image is used to hide a single bit of watermark logo. Our embedding algorithm is based on averaging the coefficients of F M region and the DC coefficient. As we know that attacker cannot alter this average (Av) of coefficients of FM region and the DC coefficient badly as it will heavily impact the quality of image, we are hiding 1 or 0 by using the relative values of four coefficients with this Av. 100

5 This algorithm is given as follows: 1. Repeat steps 2 to13 for i = 1..n; // where n is the number of copies of a single image to be watermarked // 2. INPUT (X i ); 3. Convert the X i into its equivalent spatial domain 24-bit colored image; 4. Take 8 x 8 block DCT of X i ; 5. INPUT (W); 6. Convert W into a string S = (S j S j = {0,1}, for j = 1..length of the watermark); 7. Let L = STRING_LENGTH (S); // L is the length of watermark data. If L = 1000, then first 1000 DCT block of Xi are used // 8. P i = CALL (G); // Each generated Pi shall be stored in an author s database for the detection purpose in future. Let the Pi for chosen Xi be, Pi = {(5,1), (4,2), (6,3) and (5,4)} in the chosen color channel // 9. Calculate the average Av of remaining 18 middle band coefficients and DC coefficient. Av = (DCT (0, 0) + Sum (22 Middle band coefficients) - Sum (4 chosen coefficients chosen by P i )) / Repeat steps 11 to13 for r = 1..L; 11. Read S r ; // Now like classical MBCE scheme, relative strength of average Av and chosen 4 coefficients in step 7 will interpret 0 or 1 of watermark data. To hide 0 for all 4 chosen coefficients in step 7, we assigned the value of coefficients which is T less than the average Av. To hide 1, for all 4 chosen coefficients in step 7, we assigned the value of coefficients which is T greater than the average Av // If (S r = 0) DCT (5, 1) = Av - T; DCT (4, 2) = Av - T; DCT (5, 4) = Av - T; 101

6 DCT (6, 3) = Av - T; Else DCT (5, 1) = Av + T; DCT (4, 2) = Av + T; DCT (5, 4) = Av + T; DCT (6, 3) = Av + T; End; 12. Take IDCT to reconstruct X i ; 13. Convert X i back to its JPEG format; 14. End D, THE WATERMARK DETECTION ALGORITHM Watermark extraction is the reverse procedure of watermark embedding. To extract the watermark from the watermarked JPEG image, first we convert it into its equivalent 24 bit colored images and then calculate the average Av in a same way, as in embedding algorithm. Owner has a record of all policies used to watermark the images. Based on policies ; owner of the image can recover watermark using following rule: 1) If at least 1 out of 4 chosen coefficients are less then Av, Interpret 0 ; and 2) If at least 1 out of 4 chosen coefficients are greater then Av, interpret 1. The detection algorithm steps are as follows: 1. INPUT (X i ); // Xi is the attacked copy of a watermarked image// 2. Convert X i into its equivalent 24 bit colored image; 3. Take 8x8 block DCT of X i and calculate Av; 4. For all P i stored in author s database, repeat the steps 5; // If initially 10 copies were watermarked, then out of 10 policies, for 1 policy, watermark will be recovered correctly. To explain further steps, we are assuming that now algorithm is in a loop where Pi is {(5, 1) (4, 2) (5, 4) and (6, 3)}, which was used to watermarked this particular Xi // 102

7 5. Repeat the steps 5 for j = 1.L; // L is the length of watermark data. A single bit will be recovered form one 8x8 DCT block.// Take j th DCT block to form j th bit of watermark as follows: If (DCT (5, 1) < = Av) T1 = 1; Else T1 = 0; If (DCT (4, 2) < = Av) T2 = 1; Else T2 = 0; If (DCT (5, 4) < = Av) T3 = 1; Else T3 = 0; If (DCT (6, 3) < = Av) T4 = 1; Else T4 = 0; If ( T1 + T2 + T3 + T4 > = 1 ) Decode 0 If (DCT (5, 1) > Av) P1 = 1; Else P1 = 0; If (DCT (4, 2) > Av) P2 = 1; Else P2 = 0; If (DCT (5, 4) > Av) P3 = 1; Else P3 = 0; If (DCT (6, 3) > Av) P4 = 1; Else P4 = 0; If ( P1 + P2 + P3 + P4 > = 1) 103

8 Decode 1 ; End; 6. Store W, the recovered watermark; 7. End. It may be observed from both the algorithms that even if attacker alters the values of the coefficient of FM region, if Av is not changed much, then we can recover the watermark data correctly and attacker cannot aim to attack the image in such a manner which modifies the Av PERFORMANCE OF THE PROPOSED SCHEME Our proposed scheme does not need any testing to check whether or not it is robust against the collusion attack as it is designed in such a way that the attacker can not analyze the pattern by colluding many watermarked copies. We needed to check the performance of the proposed scheme against the JPEG compression and other common image manipulations and known attacks. We have tested our scheme on four JPEG test images of Lena, Mandrill, Pepper and Goldhill shown in Figure 3.12 and watermark logo is shown in Figure We measured the image quality in terms of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Correlation Coefficient (CC). Firstly, we choose an appropriate value of T which affects least the image quality as well as optimizes the recovery of the watermark data. Based on our earlier experiences discussed in Section 5.3.5, we embedded the watermark logo in test images by keeping T = 150 (in blue color channel) and then recovered watermark logos. Our experiments suggested that in Lena, Mandrill and Pepper test images, there was, almost no loss in the perceptual quality of the images (as shown in Figure 6.1) and recovered watermark logos were of very fine quality. Figure 6.2 shows the watermark logos obtained from Lena, Mandrill, Pepper and Goldhill. It was observed that for Goldhill test image, recovery was not good. Therefore, we continued to experiment the same process for the Goldhill test image at various values of T and we found that at T = 100, Goldhill test image was giving the best recovered logo without much loosing its perceptibility. Figure 6.3 shows the 104

9 goldhill test image after the watermark logo was embedded and the recovered logo. Therefore, considering the imperceptibility versus Robustness trade-off, we fixed up the value of T = 150 for the further tests for Lena, Mandrill, and Pepper JPEG test images, and T = 100 for the Goldhill test image. Figure 6.1: Watermarked test images generated by keeping T = 150 Figure 6.2: Extracted watermark logos from watermarked Lena, Mandrill, Pepper and Goldhill test images respectively at T = 150 Figure 6.3: Goldhill test image after hiding the watermark logo and the recovered logo at T = COLOR CHANNEL SELECTION AND PERFORMANCE AGAINST JPEG COMPRESSION: Standard deviation (SD) depicts the spread of the frequency values in a range. If the histogram of a chosen color channel of a particular image has less spread, the image has less number of frequencies of the chosen color channel. Since, it is the color channel i.e. the particular color frequencies that actually carry the watermark data, we conclude that SD must play an important role. To explore the relationship 105

10 between the selection of a color channel to carry the watermark data and the efficiency of recovery, we decided to experiment on SD of all three color channels. Table 6.1 shows the standard deviation of all three color channels for test images. Table 6.1: SD values of color channels for test images Lena Mandrill Pepper Goldhill R channel G channel B channel First, we hid the watermark data in the BLUE channel of all four test images. Then, we compressed watermarked images using JPEG technique at various quality factors and then recovered the watermark logos. We calculated the PSNR and CC values of extracted logo. Table 6.2 summarizes the results. It was found that extracted watermark from Mandrill and Goldhill test images were having poor values of PSNR and CC. Therefore, for these two images, we repeated the above process by using GREEN Channel. The qualities of the extracted watermark logos from these two images were improved. Therefore, we have related the performance of our scheme with color channel selection. As, it may be observed from the Table 6.1 that for Lena s and Pepper s test images, BLUE channel have lesser SD, whereas for Mandrill s and Goldhill s images, GREEN channel has lesser SD. So it was concluded that lesser the SD better is the recovery of the watermark data. This fixed up the BLUE channel for Lena s and Pepper s watermarking and GREEN channel for rest two images. It is clear from Table 6.2 and Table 6.3 that after using GREEN channel for Mandrill s and Goldhill s images, performance was increased. It may be further observed from Table 6.3 that our proposed scheme is quite robust against JPEG compression PERFORMANCE AGAINST IMAGE MANIPULATIONS: We performed the following attacks on the watermarked test images: 106

11 Attack-1: Equalize the Histogram; Attack-2: Add 10 % Uniform noise; Attack-3: Adjust the brightness to + 40 and contrast to + 25; Attack-4: Adjust the hue and saturation to + 10 each; Attack-5: Flip Horizontal; and Attack-6: Apply uniform scaling (Zoom). Our proposed scheme sustained all the attacks and qualities of extracted watermark logos were very fine. Table 6.4 summarizes the CC of extracted logos from all test images. Figure 6.4 shows the recovered logos from attacked images.

13 Figure 6.4: Extracted logos from attacked watermarked images The schemes chosen were: Scheme-A: Correlation based Scheme (Section ) Scheme-B: The Classical Middle Band coefficient exchange scheme (Section ) Scheme-C: Collusion attack resistant watermarking scheme (Section 4.4): Scheme proposed in Section 4.4 is also based on MBCE scheme and ICAR in nature. This scheme swaps 4 pairs of coefficients in F M region in correlation with low band coefficients. We are naming this scheme as Scheme-C. Scheme-D: We named our proposed scheme as Scheme-D. We re-implemented the first three chosen schemes ideas for JPEG colored images. In their work A Novel DCT-based Approach for Secure Color Image Watermarking [7] author have compared their proposed scheme against JPEG compression with Tsai [102], cox [19], Fridrich [28] and Koch [48] approaches but they have given the results only up to JPEG Quality factor Q = 20. Therefore, we compared our proposed scheme for very 109

14 less JPEG quality factors such as Q = 5 and Q = 10. Most of the schemes started loosing their efficiency at these quality factors. We conclude that all the above schemes were very robust against JPEG compression attack but if we compressed the watermark images at very low quality factors (less than Q = 20), our proposed scheme outperformed the other schemes. No scheme, other than the proposed one, was able to extract the detectible watermark logo at Q = 10 and 5. Figure 6.5 shows the graph of CC values of recovered logos obtained from JPEG compressed (at Q = 10) images which were watermarked using various schemes. Figure 6.6 shows the graph of CC values obtained from JPEG compressed (at Q = 5) images. Therefore, the proposed scheme is not only an ICAR scheme but also enhances the performance. Results indicate that the proposed scheme recovers the watermark even from highly attacked images which are compressed up to Q = 5 quality factor of JPEG (i.e. after 95-99% size reduction). In addition to this, the proposed scheme is resisting common image manipulations like cropping, scaling, flipping, histogram equalization, brightness- contrast adjustment, hue-saturation alteration and Gaussian noise Lena (Blue) Mandrill ( Green) peper (Blue) Goldhill (Green) Scheme-A Scheme-B Scheme-C Scheme-D Figure 6.5: Comparison of correlation coefficients at Q =

JPEG2000 is a wavelet-based image compression standard. This standard has also been created by the Joint Photographic Experts Group committee in the year 2000 with the intention of superseeding their original DCT based JPEG standard (created in the year 1991). The standardized filename extension for JPEG2000 image is.jp2. JPEG 2000 has a much more significant advantage over certain modes of JPEG in that the artifacts are less visible and there is almost no blocking. The compression gains over JPEG are attributed to the use of DWT and a more sophisticated entropy encoding scheme. Since.jp2 format is new upcoming image format and very less watermarking efforts have been presented against this format conversion in the literature, we need to focus this attack because BMP and JPEG images may have to undergo.jp2 image format conversion/compression. To ensure that our watermarked images do not lose their robustness against JPEG2000 format conversion attack, we further develop a watermarking scheme which can sustain JPEG2000 format conversion attack also. 111

16 6.3.1 EXPLORATION OF DWT DOMAIN Till now, all of our proposed watermarking schemes are DCT based, and therefore, very robust against JPEG compression attack because JPEG encodes the images using DCT. Both, DCT and DWT encode (or compress) the image very differently. Since JPEG2000 encodes the image using DWT, a DCT based scheme may not be fruitful if we are targeting.jp2 conversion attack resistant nature in our watermarking scheme. Our earlier results of preprocessing (Sections 4.2) also supported this fact. So, we decided to explore DWT domain for the watermarking of JPEG images ISSUES IN USING DWT: Because of their inherent multi-resolution nature, wavelet-coding schemes are especially suitable for applications where scalability is important. The use of DWT is gaining popularity in signal processing, image compression and watermarking. DWT gives extremely good results in the case of lossless compression. But DWT has a serious issue when it comes to comparison with DCT for the watermarking purposes. We cannot assume lossless manipulation in images; both in watermark embedding and while the image is being attacked. In watermarking, one has to ensure that the watermark data is recoverable even from highly destroyed/manipulated/compressed/lossy cover image. Now, while using DCT domain, in most of the cases, we take 8 x 8 DCT and thus have hundreds of DCT blocks. In each DCT block, there are FL, FM and FH regions, as shown in Figure 2.3. We cannot use FH because any manipulation operation will attack first on FH. FL has the major dominating coefficient to recreate the image. If we use FL to hide the watermark data, cover image perceptibility will be affected seriously. Therefore, we use FM region, or since, there are so many FL regions, we can work out to devise a watermarking scheme that takes FL region also into consideration without changing FL coefficient values. On the other hand, DWT takes the complete image into consideration as shown in Figure 6.7 and breaks it into four parts, namely LL, HL, LH, and HH region. This policy may have several advantages but for watermarking, it has a very serious issue. Like DCT blocks, we should not use HH region. LL region coefficients can also not be altered much because these will heavily affect the image perceptibility (LL coefficients will alone 112

17 generate a very good approximated image and we cannot alter these coefficients much). HL and LH coefficients may be altered seriously by any image manipulation operation. Unlike DCT based transformation (where there are so many FM regions to hide the watermark data), there is only one LL region in DWT. Therefore, we have very less space to hide the watermark data. Either we disturb heavily DWT coefficients and thus affect the image perceptibility while hiding watermark data or to preserve to image quality, hide watermark data in those regions which are less susceptible to get modified by image manipulation operations and thus affecting the robustness of the watermarking scheme. We thus conclude that if we use DWT for watermarking purpose, Imperceptibility vs. Robustness balance is the new challenge for us. More precisely, the classical CDMA- DWT based scheme as given in Section , a highly referred scheme which is very robust against JPEG compression, affects the image quality up to a great extent. On the other hand, if sub-band based technique [36] does not affect the image perceptibility after hiding the watermark data, we may recover the watermark data from JPEG compressed image only up to compression ratio (Q = 70 approx). So, both the above wellknown schemes do not have a good balance in Imperceptibility vs. Robustness tradeoff. Figure 6.7: 2-D Haar DWT 113

18 Therefore, in this section, our target is to develop a watermarking scheme which is: 1) ICAR in nature (because it ensures the maximum coverage of financial implications.) 2) JPEG2000 attack resilient (because it is upcoming DWT based image format). 3) Being a DWT based scheme, achieve a good balance in Imperceptibility vs. Robustness trade-off, as most of the DWT based watermarking scheme do not satisfy much of this quality. We decided to explore Haar DWT for watermarking purposes because CDMA-DWT [42][52] and Sub-band based scheme [36] used Haar DWT and in both these schemes, use of Haar DWT has shown its robustness against JPEG compression as well as image imperceptibility separately BACKGROUND OF THE PROPOSED SCHEME We used a monochrome logo as a watermark data which we first converted into a string of 0 s and 1 s. Now, we needed to hide 0 and 1, in our JPEG image, which we converted into its equivalent RGB image. As we have said above that a single DWT block of the image does not give us enough space to hide the data, we planned to take 8 x 8 DWT on a specified color channel of JPEG so that we have a large number of DWT blocks and thus have enough opportunities to hide the watermark data. We used color channel with lesser Standard Deviation (SD) (as discussed in Section 6.2). We inherited the idea of classical MBCE scheme i.e. instead of actually embedding any data, we interpret 0 or 1 by using the relative strength of two values. We claim that the average value of all coefficients of a single LL region is less susceptible to modification because LL coefficients are the major dominating coefficients and one cannot change all coefficients much. Even if some of these have been altered after one pass of coding and decoding (Taking DWT and then IDWT), the altered coefficients will again try to get their original value (if we are not changing the perceptual quality of the image). Therefore, Average of all LL coefficients may provide us a good robustness. 114

19 Even if it is slightly modified, it is very less probable that relative values of Averages of two consecutive LL blocks get modified. So we decided to hide 0 or 1 by using the relative value of average of LL coefficients of two consecutive 8x8 DWT blocks DUAL WATERMARKING Both DCT and DWT encode the image very differently. Since DWT based watermarking scheme provides coverage against DWT based attack, our watermarking scheme may not give good result against DCT transformation based attacks as in the case of JPEG compression. Since we have a very robust DCT based scheme in hand (proposed in Section 6.2), we decided to watermark the images using both schemes, one after another, to ensure the maximum coverage against attacks. So, first we watermark an image (I) using a DWT based approach to generate a watermarked copy (I ) and the on I, we again apply a DCT based scheme, presented in Section 6.2, to generate a final watermarked copy I THE DWT BASED WATERMARKING In our proposed dual watermarking, the DWT based watermarking scheme for JPEG images is defined as a 7-tuple (X, W, P, T, G, E, D) where: 1. X denotes the set of instances X i, of a particular JPEG image, (If N copies of an image are to be watermarked, then 0 i N); 2. W denotes the monochrome watermark logo; 3. P denotes the set of policies P i, 0 i N; 4. T is the watermark strength parameter. 5. G denotes the policy generator algorithm G: X i P i, where each X i will have a unique P i, i.e. a different policy to hide the watermark data. This ensures the ICAR nature; 6. E denotes the watermark embedding algorithm, E: X i x W x P i X i ; 7. D denotes the watermark detection algorithm, D: X i x P i W, Where W represents the extracted watermark. 115

20 P, THE POLICY: P is a set of policies P i, where each P i belongs to a unique X i, the instance of an image. A Pi is generated by G and is of the form (Starting block (r,s), offset, color channel). For example, for Lena test image which we used in our experiments, P i is (starting block (0,0), offset (1), Blue) G, THE POLICY GENERATOR ALGORITHM: Similar to our earlier proposed ICAR watermarking scheme for the gray image watermarking and colored image watermarking, we need to watermark each copy X i of a JPEG image X differently to ensure the ICAR nature. Policy generator algorithm is called by E, after taking 8 x 8 DWT of the image. Since average of two consecutive LL blocks have to interpret 0 or 1, G ensures that no two copies of the same original image use the same pattern. So, G achieves this by providing E, the calling routine, a starting block (which is chosen randomly) and an offset. E can start grouping of 2 consecutive blocks using this data. For example, consider an image of size 80 x 80. There will be 100, 8 x 8 DWT blocks in each color channel as shown in Figure 6.8 and 6.9. If G returns the starting block (0,0) and offset 1 in a specific color channel, then the blocks to be chosen to hide the watermark data are shown in Figure 6.8. If G returns the starting block (5,5) and offset 2, then blocks to be chosen to hide the watermark data are shown in Figure 6.9. We assume the circular queue of the DWT blocks. If our source image is of 512 x 512 size, then there are 4096, 8 x 8 DWT blocks. Using G, we can generate thousands of policies which ensure that no two watermarked copies will share same way to hide the watermark data. The overhead of this G is that the author / owner has to record all policies in his / her database to use in the decoding phase. This depicts that our proposed scheme is an ICAR scheme. 116

21 These first 2 blocks will hide first bit These 2 consecutives blocks will hide second bit Figure 6.8: An example of 2 consecutive DWT blocks (5, 5) block These 2 blocks, having offset 2, will hide first bit These 2 blocks will hide second bit Figure 6.9: An example of 2 consecutive DWT blocks 117

22 Policy generator algorithm also returns the color channel to be used to carry the watermark data. As discussed in the Section , we used the color channel with lesser Standard Deviation (SD) to hide the watermark data E, THE WATERMARK EMBEDDING ALGORITHM: To explain the embedding algorithm, we assume that G returns the DWT (0, 0) block as starting block with offset as 1. A simple watermark embedding approach is shown in Figure Embedding algorithm steps are as follows: 1. Repeat steps 2 to12 for i = 1..n; // where n is the number of copies of a single image X to be watermarked// 2. INPUT (X i ); // Xi is the instance of X. 3. Convert the X i into its equivalent spatial domain 24-bit colored image; 4. Take 8 x 8 block DWT of X i ; 5. INPUT (W); 6. Convert W into a string S = (S j S j = {0,1}, for j = 1..length of the watermark); 7. Let L = STRING_LENGTH (S); // L is the length of watermark data. If L = 1000, then first 2000 DWT block of Xi are used to hide the watermark data // 8. P i = CALL (G); // Each Pi shall be stored in an author s database for the detection purpose in future. Let the Pi, for chosen Xi, be Pi = {DWT (0, 0), Offset (1), BLUE} which is shown in Figure 6.8 // 9. Repeat steps 10 to 12 for r = 1..L; 10. Read S r ; // Based on Pi, the average AV1 and AV2 of 2 chosen DWT blocks is calculated as follows: // AV1 = (Sum of all LL coefficients of DWT (0, 0))/16; AV2 = (Sum of all LL coefficients of DWT (0, 1))/16; If (S r = 0) If (AV1 - AV2 > 0) v = (AV1 - AV2) / 16; 118

23 End; Subtract v from all coefficients of DWT (0, 0); Add v in all coefficients of DWT (0, 1); // Now relative value of AV1 and AV2 reflects the watermark bit. To further increase the robustness, we adjust the LL coefficients values such that difference of AV1 and AV2 become at least T, the watermark strength parameter // Subtract T / 2 from all LL coefficients of DWT (0, 0); Add T / 2 in all LL coefficients of DWT (0, 1); Else If (S r = 1) If (AV1 - AV2 < = 0) v = (AV2 - AV1) / 16; Subtract v from all coefficients of DWT (0, 1); Add v in all coefficients of DWT (0, 0); End; // Now relative value of AV1 and AV2 reflects the watermark bit.

24 Generated using G LL LL 2 Consecutive 8x8 blocks will hide a single bit 0 or 1 Divide image in 8x8 block Take average of these 16 coefficients (AV1) Take average of these 16 coefficients (AV2) Adjust AV1 and AV2 (By changing LL coefficients little bit) such that their relative values reflect the watermark bits 0 or 1. If AV1 > AV2 => 1 else 0. Now consider next 2 consecutive blocks to hide next bit and so on So, 1000 watermark bits will be hidden using 2000 consecutive 8 x 8 DWT blocks. Then IDWT will be taken. After then, image will be dual watermarked using DCT based watermarking scheme presented in Section 6.2. Figure 6.10: Watermark embedding approach D, THE WATERMARK DETECTION ALGORITHM: Watermark extraction is the reverse procedure of watermark embedding. To extract the watermark from the watermarked JPEG image, first we converted it into its equivalent 24 bit colored images, took 8 x 8 DWT and then calculated the average AV of consecutive blocks based on policies stored in author s database. The detection algorithm steps are as follows: 120

25 1. INPUT (X i ); // Xi is the attacked copy of a watermarked image // 2. Convert X i into its equivalent 24 bit colored image; 3. Take 8 x 8 block DWT of X i for the specific color channel; // Based on Pi, author knows which color channel was used to hide the watermark data for a specific image // 4. Repeat step 5 to step 7 for each P i ; 5. Based on each Pi, group the DWT blocks in pairs; 6. For i = 1 to 2 * (L-1) repeat step 7; // L is the length of W // 7. For each pair (AV1, AV2) of DWT blocks; If (AV 1 > AV2) Decode 1 ; Else Decode 0 ; 8. Reconstruct W, the extracted watermark; 9. End THE DCT BASED WATERMARKING After hiding the watermark logo using DWT based watermarking presented above, we dual watermarked the images using DCT based watermarking presented in Section RESULTS We applied the proposed dual watermarking scheme on three standard JPEG test images of Lena, Mandrill and Pepper. In this section, we used a different watermark logo, which is shown in Figure

26 Figure 6.11: The watermark logo THE VALUE OF T : Our proposed DWT based scheme takes a watermark strength parameter as an input. This T itself tries to balance the Imperceptibility versus Robustness trade-off. To decide the optimal value of this parameter, we hid the watermark data in test images at various values of T and then calculated the PSNR values of the watermarked images. Some of those values (which will lead us to a final value) are shown in Table 6.5. After this, the watermark data was recovered and the quality of the watermark data was measured using Correlation Coefficient. Table 6.5: PSNR of watermarked image and CC of extracted logo for various values of T Lena Mandrill Pepper T PSNR of PSNR of PSNR of CC of CC of CC of recovered (LL color color color channel recovered logo recovered logo logo Band) channel channel Table 6.6: Revised Table 6.5 T = 500 T = 600 T = 700 PSNR Lena CC PSNR Mandrill CC PSNR Pepper CC

27 PSNR CC PSNR CC PSNR CC Lena Mandrill Pepper T=500 T=600 T=700 Figure 6.12: Graph of the values shown in Table 6.6 Table 6.5 represents the above results. It is obvious that for the higher values of T, the PSNR values of the watermarked images decrease but at the same time, the CC of the extracted logos increase. To decide the value of T, we first brought the values of PSNR data in the range of CC data, by multiplying by 2.5 and then reproduced the Table 6.6. Figure 6.12 shows the graph of the values shown in Table 6.6. It may be observed that series for T = 600 is always lying between the series of T = 500 and T = 700. It means that value T = 600 is the best value, under the Imperceptibility versus robustness trade off. Similarly for other values of T, if PSNR value is good, CC value is poor and viceversa. We conducted further tests by using T = 600 for all test images. It may be noted that our target was to embed the JPEG2000 attack resistant nature using DWT based embedding without loosing the robustness against those attacks which our DCT based scheme could sustain. Therefore, first we hid the watermark logo using DWT based scheme, and then checked its robustness against JPEG2000 attack. As presented in Table 6.6, the quality of the watermarked image did not decrease considerably. We converted the watermarked 123

28 JPEG images (without applying DCT based scheme) to JPEG2000 format. Then, we recovered the watermark logos from these watermarked images (which are converted to JPEG2000 format). Table 6.7 represents the CC coefficients of extracted logos. Figure 6.13 shows the extracted logos from JPEG2000 converted watermarked Lena, mandrill and Pepper s test images. Table 6.7: CC of extracted logos from JPEG2000 attacked images Test Image CC Lena Mandrill Pepper Figure 6.13: Extracted logos from Lena, Mandrill and Pepper s test images It may be observed from Table 6.7 and Figure 6.13 that our proposed DWT based watermarking scheme is capable of sustaining JPEG2000 format conversion attack. In order to implement the dual watermarking scheme, we further applied the DCT based scheme on the watermarked images which were generated by applying DWT based scheme. Now we had to check the effect on the image perceptibility as well as robustness against JPEG2000 format conversion attack. Table 6.8 shows the decrement in the PSNR values after the application of DCT based scheme. Though decrement is natural, it is not perceptually visible in the PSNR values. It is a compromise with the image quality to make the watermarked images very robust against more DCT based attacks, which we will present later in this section. 124

29 Table 6.8: Decrement in the PSNR values after the application of DCT based scheme PSNR if only DWT based scheme is applied PSNR if both DWT & DCT based scheme are applied Lena Mandrill Pepper After applying dual watermarking scheme, we again conducted the JPEG2000 format conversion attack on the watermarked images. Now we had a choice. We could recover the watermark logos either by applying DWT based recovery or by applying DCT based recovery. Table 6.9 shows the CC values of the extracted watermark logos recovered by both recovery methods which clearly indicate that DCT based recovery gave better results. Figure 6.14 shows the extracted logos using DWT based method and Figure 6.15 shows the extracted logos using DWT based method. Table 6.9: CC values of the extracted watermark logos recovered by both recovery methods CC if DWT based recovery is applied CC if DCT based recovery is applied Lena Mandrill Pepper Figure 6.14: Extracted logos using DWT based method 125

30 Figure 6.15: Extracted logos using DCT based method PERFORMANCE AGAINST JPEG COMPRESSION: We have seen in the previous section that our proposed DCT based scheme is very robust against JPEG compression attack. We need to check the robustness of the dual watermarking scheme presented in this section against JPEG compression. We compressed all test images after applying dual watermark at very low JPEG quality factor Q = 20, 10 and 5 and recovered the watermark logos using DCT based recovery. Our proposed dual watermarking sustained this attack very strongly even at Q = 5. Table 6.10 shows the CC of the extracted logos. Figure 6.16 shows the extracted logos. Table 6.10: CC of extracted logo from highly compressed jpeg image using DCT based recovery Q = 20 Q = 10 Q = 5 Lena Mandrill Pepper Q = 20 Q = 10 Q = 5 Lena Mandrill Pepper Figure 6.16: Extracted logos from highly compressed JPEG images 126

31 PERFORMANCE AGAINST COMMON ATTACKS AND IMAGE MANIPULATIONS: Since we know that transform domain based schemes are very robust against those attacks which can reduce the size but not the perceptual quality, we conducted some attacks on our dual watermarked images, which change the perceptual quality of an image too. The attacks are as follows: Attack 1: Adding uniform noise (10%), Attack 2: Adding Gaussian noise (10 %), Attack 3: Equalizing histogram, Attack 4: Applying uniform scaling, Attack 5: Adjusting brightness (+ 40) and contrast (+ 25), Attack 6: Horizontal flipping, and Attack 7: Adjustment of hue and saturation (+ 10 each). Table 6.11 shows the CC of the extracted watermark logos and Figure 6.17 shows the extracted watermark logos. It may be observed that the proposed dual watermarking scheme sustained all the above mentioned attacks COMPARATIVE STUDY WITH DCT BASED SCHEMES: We compared the performance of the proposed scheme against JPEG compression with other similar schemes which are DCT based and well known for their robustness against JPEG compression. We re-implemented these schemes for JPEG images. Schemes chosen were: Scheme-A: Correlation based scheme (Section ) Scheme-B: The classical Middle Band Coefficient Exchange scheme (Section ) Scheme-C: Collusion attack resistant watermarking scheme (Section 4.4): Scheme proposed in Section 4.4 is also based on MBCE scheme and ICAR in nature. This scheme swaps 4 pairs of coefficients in FM region in correlation with low band coefficients. We are naming this scheme as Scheme-C. Scheme-D: The scheme presented in Section 6.2. Scheme E: The proposed dual scheme in this section. 127

32 Table 6.11: CC of the extracted watermark logos Attacks Lena Mandrill Pepper Adding uniform noise (10%) Adding Gaussian noise (10 %) Equalizing histogram Applying uniform scaling Adjusting brightness (+ 40) and contrast (+ 25) Horizontal flipping Adjustment of hue and saturation (+ 10 each) Figure 6.17: Extracted watermark logos after applying common attacks 128

33 We watermarked the test images by using all chosen watermarking schemes and then conducted very low JPEG compression (up to Q = 5, whereas most of the research papers presented results only up to Q = 20). Then we calculated the CC of the extracted logos. It may be observed from Table 6.12 and 6.13 that Scheme-E performs better than Scheme- A, B and C. As compared to scheme-d, Scheme-E did not lower the performance but at some point (Lena s image at both Q = 5 and 10, and Pepper s image at Q = 5) improves the CC of the extracted logos COMPARATIVE STUDY WITH DWT BASED SCHEMES: As compared to Classical CDMA-DWT based schemes presented in Section , our scheme outperforms in the quality of the watermarked image (refer Table 6.8). Table 6.12: Comparison of CC of Extracted logos from JPEG compressed (Q = 10) watermarked images Lena Mandrill Pepper Scheme-A Scheme-B Scheme-C Scheme-D Scheme-E Table 6.13: Comparison of CC of Extracted logos from JPEG compressed (Q = 5) watermarked images Lena Mandrill Pepper Scheme-A Scheme-B Scheme-C Scheme-D Scheme-E

34 Sub-band filtering based watermarking scheme [36] is very good in preserving the perceptual quality of the watermark images but when it come to the robustness against JPEG compression, authors presented results only up to the compression ratio 10 to 15 whereas our proposed watermarking scheme can decode the watermark data up to the quality factor Q = 5 (refer Table 6.13) i.e. the compression ratio 2 to 3. It further proves that our proposed scheme has achieved a very good balance in imperceptibility versus robustness tradeoff while using DWT based watermarking scheme. 6.4 CONCLUSION In this chapter, we provided 2 watermarking schemes for watermarking the JPEG images. The first scheme is DCT based and the other one is a dual watermarking scheme having a DWT based watermarking as a component. Both schemes are very robust especially against JPEG compression and other common image manipulation and attacks. Both schemes also achieve a very good balance in Image-imperceptibility vs. robustness trade-off and are ICAR in nature. 130
