An effective digital image watermarking scheme incorporating DCT, DFT and SVD transformations

Image watermarking prevents copyright infringements by attaching visible/invisible watermark images as authentication identities in the owner’s documents. The article made analysis on the advantages of different transformations for choosing better combinations to make the watermark embedding process and observed that watermarking techniques incorporating discrete cosine transform (DCT) provide better resistance towards JPEG based potential attacks, discrete Fourier transform (DFT) has strong energy compaction with geometrical invariance properties to resist geometric attacks while singular value decomposition (SVD) provides stability, proportion invariance and rotation invariance properties and it provides strong resistance against noise based attacks. Considering these advantages of different transformations, the article presents a new non-blind watermarking algorithm by utilizing advantages of DFT, DCT and SVD transforms while attaching secret contents in cover images. The algorithm starts by applying DFT followed by onion peel decomposition (OPD) for decomposing Fourier domain carrier image to four frequency sub images. The scheme then applies DCT on the frequency bands and orders them in zigzag fashion to form four individual frequency arrays. In the final step of embedding process, it embeds four copies of watermark singular value contents in DFT domain with the carrier image singular value contents to produce the watermarked image. The experimental results based on subjective and objective metrics on various test images from standard image databases with different test conditions demarcate the stability of new algorithm in producing high quality watermarked images with fewer distortions even when the watermarked images are extremely distorted by potential attacks.

LITERATURE SURVEY
Digital image watermarking schemes are widely categorized in to spatial and frequency approaches based on how watermarks are attached to the carrier images (Singh et al., 2017). Since spatial domain techniques attach digital watermark contents directly to the carrier image bits, these methods suffer severely when attacked in terms of watermark inversion and other potential attacks. Hence many frequency domains based algorithms (Wang et al., 2020;Hussain, Razak & Varghese, 2019) are developed using the frequency transformations such as DCT, Radon transform, DFT, Hadamard transform, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), Z-transform, Arnold transform and SVD for mixing carrier and watermark frequencies (Hussain, Razak & Varghese, 2019). Separating different frequencies by these frequency transformations help frequency domain methods to correctly identify and mix appropriate frequency spectrum for attaching watermark contents so that the resultant watermarked image shows better robustness against momentous potential attacks (Hussain, Razak & Varghese, 2019;Nematollahi, Vorakulpipat & Rosales, 2017). Qin et al. (2017) proposed a least significant bit (LSB) based block-wise tampering localization and pixel-wise recovery for watermarking. But the algorithm is computationally complex and suffers severely with potential attacks since LSBs are the most sensitive bits to potential attacks. Makbol et al. (2017) addressed false positive problem (FPP) by incorporating integer wavelet transform (IWT) and secret keys. However, the algorithm uses computationally inefficient multi-objective ant colony optimization technique for optimizing its parameters. Lei et al. (2018) introduced a watermarking algorithm incorporating quantization index modulation (QIM) to address scaling based potential attacks. Roy & Pal (2018) incorporated redundant discrete wavelet transform (RDWT) with SVD to propose color image watermarking algorithm but the reconstructed watermarked image suffers blocky and patchy effects due to nonoverlapping block based processing. Su & Chen (2018) attached watermark components in spatial domain. Liu, Pan & Song (2017) combined fractal coding and DCT methods for enforcing security in their DCT based watermark scheme but the algorithm suffers the limitations of DCT in protecting watermark contents from geometrical potential attacks.
In many frequency domain methods (Garg & Rama Kishore, 2020;Dixit & Dixit, 2017;Kang et al., 2018;Yadav, Kumar & Kumar, 2018;Li et al., 2018;Kaur, Gupta & Singh, 2019;Ali et al., 2015;Zheng et al., 2018;Nguyen, Chang & Yang, 2016), SVD is used in combination with other frequency transformations to provide better quality watermarked images with high robustness towards external potential attacks due to SVD's simplicity, compactness and geometrical invariance properties (Shih, 2017;Nematollahi, Vorakulpipat & Rosales, 2017;Dixit & Dixit, 2017). Kang et al. (2018) introduced a watermarking algorithm in DCT, SVD and DWT domains by attaching watermark components in specific middle frequencies. However, the algorithm failed in reproducing valuable watermarks when potential attacks affect middle frequency components. Yadav, Kumar & Kumar (2018) attached watermark components in the third level frequency components of DWT. Since this scheme attaches watermark components only in low pass frequencies of first and second levels of DWT, the algorithm could not provide better robustness against attacks that corrupt low frequencies. Li et al. (2018) incorporated Hadamard transform and Schur decomposition. Kaur, Gupta & Singh (2019) attached watermark singular values in the singular value contents of DWT coefficients of the HH components of carrier image. Ali et al. (2015) incorporated artificial bee colony algorithm for selecting suitable non-overlapping blocks for attaching watermark components in wavelet domain. Zheng et al. (2018) used convolution neural network (CNN) to attach watermarks in DWT and SVD domains. However, the algorithm is computationally inefficient due to CNN optimization process with many hidden layers. Nguyen, Chang & Yang (2016) attached the watermark in second level low frequency area of DWT coefficients. Mokashi et al. (2022) used DWT-DCT-SVD transforms to attach watermark images. But the algorithm fails to retrieve correct watermark when potential attacks affect low-frequency sub-bands. These limitations of embedding single copy watermark in specific frequencies, paved way for later algorithms (Emir & Eskicioglu, 2004;Alexander, Scott & Ahmet, 2006;Run et al., 2012;Justin et al., 2016) to attach more copies of watermarks in various carrier frequencies. Hence the algorithms that embed watermark replicas in various carrier frequencies show improved robustness against external potential attacks as these algorithms have more possibility for protecting some watermark replicas although the potential attacks may damage other replicas attached in other carrier image frequencies.
Exploiting the combined merits of SVD and DWT transforms, Emir & Eskicioglu (2004) attached four copies of watermark singular values in the Haar DWT sub-bands. This algorithm produces flaws in watermarked images since it fails to spread the frequencies by applying frequency transformation to the watermark contents before attaching it to the carrier frequencies. Also the problems of DWT in handling JPEG and geometrical attacks produce distortions in its extracted watermarks. Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006) attempted to address these limitations by incorporating DCT with SVD, but the algorithm could not provide ample robustness due to the limitations of DCT in handling specific potential attacks. Run et al. (2012) attached principal components of watermarks with the carrier singular values but the algorithm has numerous flaws due to the sensitiveness of principal components towards potential attacks. As an improvement of Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006) and Emir & Eskicioglu (2004) algorithms, our previous work (Justin et al., 2016) incorporated DFT and SVD transforms in its watermarking scheme. The algorithm embedded four replicas of watermark singular value components respectively to the singular values corresponding to all the four frequency sub-images. Though this method performs better with majority of potential attacks, but could not provide stability in its performance to provide valid watermarks for all attacks including noise and cropping based attacks. Although these algorithms address some problems of image watermarking, could not simultaneously address all requirements of image watermarking such as capacity, imperceptibility, computational efficiency and robustness against all potential attacks (Shih, 2017;Nematollahi, Vorakulpipat & Rosales, 2017).
In the domain of watermarking, the watermarking techniques incorporating DWT shows better multi-resolution analysis but fails in protecting watermark contents when the carrier image is attacked with JPEG and noise (Poljicak, Mandic & Agic, 2011;Justin et al., 2015). Since DCT is highly used in JPEG image compression standards, it shows good robustness when the watermarked image is subject to lossy compression or in the case of other practical applications on the internet. The watermark contents attached in high frequency bands are damaged as good amount of high frequency coefficients are quantized to zero during JPEG compression. Though DCT show resistance against most of the geometrical attacks, it is highly sensitive to noise and filtering. Since there is a sudden compaction of energy in low frequency area in the top-left pixel of the block of DCT, it is hard to select the suitable middle frequency components of the carrier image for attaching the watermark components. DFT has strong energy compaction with rotation, scaling and translation invariance properties but could not offer comparative resistance in case of noise and cropping based attacks (Poljicak, Mandic & Agic, 2011). It is observed that these transforms though could individually offer better resistance towards some types of potential attacks, fails severely to resist other types of potential attacks (Justin et al., 2016). SVD is a matrix factorization method that factorizes given matrix to two orthonormal matrices and a diagonal singular value matrix with positive real numbers. Even if there are larger changes in the singular value matrix it will not produce much deviation in the reconstructed image. Since singular values possess inherent algebraic advantages and have very good stability, SVD shows good resistance towards noise and cropping based watermark attacks. Considering these advantages and demerits of different transformations, the article presents a new non-blind watermarking algorithm by utilizing the merits of DFT, DCT and SVD to provide stable robustness and imperceptibility qualities.

New non-blind DFT-DCT-SVD watermarking algorithm
The new watermarking algorithm exploits advantages of DFT, DCT and SVD transforms while attaching watermark in the carrier image. To achieve improved robustness against external potential attacks, the new method embeds watermark replicas in various carrier frequencies. By embedding watermark replicas to all frequencies of the cover image, the new method provides more chances for protecting some watermark replicas although the potential attacks may damage other replicas. The sequential flow diagram of new scheme is shown in Fig. 1.

Embedding the watermark
The algorithm begins by transforming carrier image to frequency domain by applying Fourier transform and shifting its origin to the center. The resultant image is then divided in to four frequency blocks depending on its circular distance from the direct current (DC) coefficient using OPD algorithm (Justin et al., 2016). DCT is applied to these four frequency bands and the resultant image is ordered in zigzag fashion to form four individual frequency arrays. These individual arrays are again equally divided into four frequency spectrums, the extremely high (B4), high (B3), medium (B2) and very low frequency (B1) arrays. Similar frequency components of these arrays are combined for forming final four frequency blocks and SVD transform is individually applied to these four carrier image frequency blocks. In parallel to these operations, the watermark image is also applied with Fourier transform followed by SVD and the copies of watermark singular values are attached with the singular values of cover image frequency blocks.
If C and X denote cover and watermark images with dimensions m Â n and m 2 Â n 2 respectively, then new watermarking scheme is explained in the subsequent steps.
Step 1: Fourier transform provides energy compaction with strong tolerance towards translation and rotation (Setiadi, 2021) and hence the algorithm applies Fourier transform on C and X to form frequency domain images, F and W respectively.
Step 2: For utilizing the advantages of attaching watermark replicas to different frequency levels, the algorithm converts F to one dimensional frequency array using OPD. OPD algorithm performs a circular sweep of Fourier spectrum starting from the upper left corner (high frequency components) to the DC coefficient (lowest frequency components) located at the center of F. The OPD track all the frequencies of DFT spectrum in the high to low frequency order. Since the frequencies in DFT image, F vary from low to high frequencies in proportion to its positional distance from the DC component at the center position, the output of OPD is a 1D frequency array whose values starts at the highest frequency and ends at the DC coefficient. If this array is divided in to four equal parts, it is easy to separate the frequency components. These sub-bands are reshaped to 2D shape to form ultra high, very high, high and low frequency sub-band images. The singular value components of these sub-band images are then used for attaching multiple copies of watermark components. The OPD algorithm with its demonstrating example is given in . The OPD operation is defined as Pictorial illustration of OPD and inverse OPD are given in Fig. 2 and the details of the algorithm with pseudo codes are found in our older work (Justin et al., 2016). These B4, B3, B2 and B1 arrays are reshaped into m 2 Â n 2 blocks for further processing and the corresponding frequency blocks formed are denoted as B 1 , B 2 , B 3 and B 4 blocks.
Step 3: To provide better robustness towards JPEG compression based external attacks, DCT is applied on B 1 , B 2 , B 3 and B 4 frequency blocks as a second level frequency decomposition to obtain the frequency block FD k for all the four blocks k ¼ 1; 2; ::4.
Since the frequencies in the DCT image, FD k vary from low to high in proportion to its diagonal distance from the DC component at position 0; 0 ð Þ, each FD k is ordered in zigzag manner to convert FD to one dimensional frequency array where values of FD k starts at low frequency and ends at high frequency coefficient. When these individual arrays are divided into four equal parts (totally 16 for all four blocks), it is easy to separate the frequency components into the second level of B4, B3, B2 and B1 components. From all these individual arrays, the B4, B3, B2 and B1 counterparts are individually collected and four frequency arrays with equal sizes of 1 Â   Step 4: Since external modification of the carrier image doesn't affect the singular values much, SVD of individual frequency blocks D k 8k ¼ 1; 2; ::4 are then determined for attaching the copy of watermark singular values with the carrier frequency block singular values. The SVD operation on carrier and watermark frequency blocks are defined respectively as are orthonormal matrices while S k and S X are singular value matrices. The diagonal elements of S k and S X are called singular values of cover and watermark blocks, respectively.
Step 5: Embedding watermark content replicas at different frequency bands of cover image help protect watermark contents from external attacks affecting specific frequencies and hence the watermark embedding process is done by adding the replicas of watermark singular value matrix S X to the singular value matrices of carrier frequency block as Here g k and S Ã k represent embedding strength parameter and singular values corresponding to carrier image respectively of the k th block. The embedding intensity g k controls the watermark contents in cover image and it is set according to the trust on the communication media and the quality of watermarked image for specific applications.
Step 6: Once the watermark contents are attached with cover image frequencies, the algorithm starts the inverse process to reproduce the watermarked image. The watermarked frequency blocks D Ã k 8k ¼ 1; 2; ::4 are determined by performing inverse SVD as Step 7: These watermarked frequency blocks D Step 8: Since these rearranged arrays are in DCT and zigzag ordered form, inverse zigzag operation followed by inverse DCT are applied to these individual arrays to find the next level of processing to reconstruct the watermarked image. Let B Ã k 8k ¼ 1; 2; ::4 denote the frequency block after applying inverse zigzag and the inverse DCT operations.
Step 9: The frequency blocks, B Ã k 8k ¼ 1; 2; ::4 are individually reshaped into four arrays to form B1, B2, B3 and B4 arrays to form the combined array (B4, B3, B2, B1). The inverse OPD algorithm is then applied to reconstruct back the Fourier transform of the watermarked image as Step 10: As the final stage, Inverse Fourier Transform is performed on F Ã for regenerating the watermarked image, The watermark components S X attached inside watermarked image C Ã is utilized as a meta-data to identify the owner, authentication and uprightness of the host images. The scheme has better energy compaction, geometrical invariance and other resistance properties towards external attacks due to the collective advantages of different transforms. Also the algorithm is capable producing better quality watermarked outputs with high visual qualities due to better energy spreading capabilities of different transforms.

Extraction of watermark
This sub-section explains the operations to be performed for extracting the watermark from carrier image. The algorithm performs the same way as embedding process but extracts the watermark contents from watermarked singular values. IfC denotes watermarked image received for authentication, the watermark extraction procedure is detailed through following steps: Step 1: The watermark extraction algorithm starts by applying Fourier transformation on the watermarked image,C as in (1) to produceF.
Step 2: As used in watermark embedding process, OPD is applied for convertingF to one dimensional frequency array as The B4, B3, B2 and B1 arrays are reshaped into m 2 Â n 2 blocks for further processing and these frequency blocks are denoted asB 1 ,B 2 ,B 3 , andB 4 .
Step 4: Same as step 4 of watermark embedding process, SVD on individual frequency blocks,D k 8k ¼ 1; 2; ::4 are performed for extracting the watermark singular value replicas from carrier block singular values as Step 5: The watermark singular value copies S k X are then extracted from the watermarked frequency block singular value matrices as where g k and S Ã k are the embedding strength parameter and hast image singular values of k th block, respectively.
Step 6: The watermarked blocks are constructed by applying inverse SVD to respective watermark singular values Step 7: As the final step, the algorithm applies inverse Fourier transform onW k and the watermark replicasX k are extracted as Since the scheme exploit the merits of DFT, DCT and SVD transforms to protect watermark contents from wide levels of potential attacks through its watermark embedding and extraction schemes, it consistently produces better quality watermarked images with better robustness. Since it attaches singular value replicas to all frequency contents of cover image frequencies, the algorithm has better provision for protecting watermarks from various sets of attacks that affect specific frequency bands of cover images. Also, as the algorithm apply Fourier transform to the watermark before it is attached with cover image contents, it ensures better frequency spreading of watermark contents in cover image contents ensuring high quality watermarked images with better resistance towards external attacks. The sequential flow diagram of extracting watermark is given in Fig. 3.

RESULTS
The empirical analysis of the watermarking method based on imperceptibility and robustness capabilities is made with a large set of images from which rice, man, circles, Barbara, cameraman, boats, baboon, peppers, bridge and different logo images are presented in this article for demarcating the subjective and objective performances of different algorithms. To perform effective comparative study of various watermarking schemes with subjective and objective metrics, the payload of watermark content in cover image needs to be same for these algorithms. Aiming at these requirements, the algorithms that attach similar amount of data with similar multiple replicas are being considered in this study for analysis. Comparative algorithms used in the study to analyse the effectiveness of the new scheme are DCT based Imperceptibility measures the similarity of watermarked images with its original counterpart while robustness makes the tolerance of watermarked images to external potential attacks in preserving watermark contents. The imperceptibility analysis of the new algorithm is made with peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) (Setiadi, 2021), mean structural similarity index measure (MSSIM) (Setiadi, 2021;Wang et al., 2004) and feature similarity index measure (FSIM) (Zhang et al., 2011). PSNR is determined as Here, MSE is the mean square error of C Ã with C. SSIM provides human perceptionbased structural similarity analysis between C and C Ã (Wang et al., 2004). MSSIM is given by Here, C b and C Ã b respectively represents image areas of b th window of C and C Ã . Also l and r denote the mean and standard deviation while c 1 and c 2 are constants. FSIM provides human perception based low-level feature comparison measure by extracting phase congruency (PC) and gradient magnitude (GM) of comparative images. If is the set of entire row and column positions of C and C Ã , FSIM is determined by Here, SL b ð Þ is the local similarity map by phase congruency (PC) and gradient magnitude (GM) while PC m b ð Þ represents maximum of phase congruency of C and C Ã . Detailed explanation on FSIM calculations can be found in Zhang et al. (2011).
For maintaining consistency in comparative analysis of various schemes, the embedding strength parameter g k 8k ¼ 1; 2; ::4 is set to 0.1 for all algorithms.
Robustness of the new scheme is analyzed with other algorithms using bit error rate (BER) in percentage and normalized cross correlation (NCC) values of attached and extracted watermark images and the Pearson's correlation coefficient (PCC) values of attached and extracted singular values against a variety of external attacks, from which Gaussian and impulse noises, geometrical transformations, filtering, histogram equalization, JPEG compression, resizing, unsharp masking, contrast stretching, flipping and pixelate attacks are used in this article to illustrate the analysis. Bit error rate (BER) (Mokhnache, Bekkouche & Chikouche, 2018) represents the ratio of corrupted bits to total available bits. The BER of extracted watermark,X from attached watermark, X in percentage is determined as Here represents the XOR operation. An effective watermarking algorithm should produce low BER in case of potential attacks affected watermarked images. The normalized cross correlation (NCC) (Xie & Qin, 2010) measures the resemblance of attached and extracted watermarks and is defined by High values of NCC near one indicates that the output watermark of algorithm has high s resemblance with the original watermark. PCC is used for measuring the linear relationship of original singular values S X with the extracted singular valuesS k X from watermarked image impinged with different attacks. PCC calculation can be expressed by Here, l S Ã k and l  Table 2. From Table 2, it is vivid that the DFT-DCT-SVD algorithm produces better BER, NCC and PCC values than DWT-DCT-SVD and DWT-DFT-SVD based algorithms except for rescaling/multi-resolution based potential attacks. By analyzing the quantitative results of DWT-DCT-SVD, DWT-DFT-SVD and DFT-DCT-SVD algorithms from Tables 1 and 2, it can be identified that DFT-DCT-SVD algorithm shows better imperceptibility and robustness qualities than DWT-DCT-SVD and DWT-DFT-SVD algorithms and hence, we use DFT-DCT-SVD algorithm as the proposed method to compare other prominent algorithms used in this comparative study. Tables 3-5 Table 3 show that the proposed scheme produces better PSNR values than other comparative methods except for combination between Bridge and Logo-4. From Table 4, it is clear that the new scheme produces better MSSIM values than other methods except for the man and circle combination. Table 5 demarcates that the proposed scheme produces better FSIM values than other methods except for Baboon-Logo-2 and peppers-Logo-3 combinations. Figure 4 shows the cropped versions of watermarked images by comparative algorithms for Barbara (cover) image with the cameraman image as  Tables 3-5 and by the visual analysis on Fig. 4, one can reach that the proposed scheme shows stable performance and it outperforms other algorithms in most of the test cases of imperceptibility analysis. Figure 5 shows the cropped versions of watermarked Barbara image impinged with different attacks. Tables 6-8 makes the PCC analysis of watermark images of various  (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best results for seven, 10 and five potential attacks respectively while the proposed method produces best results for 15 image processing attacks. Table 7 demarcates that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best results for two, nine and five potential attacks respectively while the proposed method produces best results for 17 image processing attacks. Table 8 shows that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms respectively produce best results for five, 12 and four potential attacks while the proposed method produces best results for 15 image processing attacks. Tables 9-11 makes the BER and NCC analysis of watermark images of various schemes from watermarked images impinged with different external attacks. From Table 9, it is clear that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best results for three, two and two potential attacks respectively in terms of BER while the proposed method produces best results for 13 image processing attacks. Table 10 demarcates that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best results for two, four and three     potential attacks respectively in terms of BER while the proposed method produces best results for 11 image processing attacks. Table 11 shows that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best BER results for three, four and three potential attacks respectively while the proposed method produces best results for 10 image processing attacks. From Table 9, it is clear that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best results for five, six and four potential attacks respectively in terms of NCC while the proposed method produces best results for seven image processing attacks. Table 10 shows that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best results for three, five and four potential attacks respectively in terms of NCC while the proposed method produces best results for 12 image processing attacks. Table 11 shows that Emir & Eskicioglu (2004), Alexander, Scott & Ahmet (2006), Justin et al. (2016) algorithms produce best NCC results for five, six and four potential attacks respectively while the proposed method produces best results for nine image processing attacks. It is clear from Tables 6-11 that the results of proposed method is consistent in providing better robustness against all potential attacks although it fails in some cases to produce best results in terms of PCC, BER and NCC values.  watermarking scheme makes consistent performance for majority of attacks and provides better quantitative values than other algorithms for majority of external attacks by utilizing advantages of DFT, DCT and SVD transforms while attaching secret contents in cover images.

CONCLUSIONS
The article presented a new non-blind watermarking algorithm that utilized the combined merits of DFT, DCT and SVD transforms. With the embedding of watermark replicas to all cover image frequencies, the new scheme provides improved resistance towards external potential attacks since the algorithm has more possibility for protecting some watermark replicas although the potential attacks may damage other replicas attached in other carrier image frequencies. As the algorithm utilizes the collective advantages of DFT, DCT and SVD transforms while attaching secret contents in cover images, it shows better robustness and imperceptibility capabilities than other algorithms used in the study. The experimental results based on subjective and objective metrics on various test images with different test conditions showed that the proposed non-blind algorithm exhibits better consistency by producing high visual quality images offering better resistance against external attacks.

Future scope
The new scheme is designed for performing consistently to provide acceptable watermark though the cover image is attacked with different external attacks. Future algorithms can look up on extending the new scheme to provide better quality watermarks for majority of external attacks. Intelligent hybrid solutions can be looked up on with better homogeneity analysis of the carrier and watermark images to achieve better quality watermarked image with comparatively less visual distortions.
