Abstract
This paper proposes a novel geometrically invariant watermarking scheme based on Hessian-Laplace detector and Bessel–Fourier moments. Firstly, Hessian-Laplace detector is adopted to extract feature points. Then, non-overlapped disks centered at feature points are generated. These disks are normalized for the invariance to rotation, scaling and translation distortions. Finally, the watermark is embedded in magnitudes of Bessel–Fourier moments of each disk via dither modulation to realize the robustness to common image processing operations and de-synchronization attacks. Simulation results demonstrate the proposed watermarking procedure has the superior and remarkable performance in imperceptibility and robustness to various attacks.
