  Abstract

In this paper, we propose a blind watermarking that embeds watermarks into wavelet middle frequency subbands using human visual system. Wavelet middle frequency pairs(MFP) show similar distortion against general image processing attacks such as compression and filtering. So the quantization between MFPs is more robust than conventional methods that directly quantize DWT coefficients. We use a noise visibility function(NVF) to obtain a good visual quality. This is able to preserve embedding positions after many attacks. Our experimental results show that the proposed scheme is robust to various image processing such as JPEG, while preserving good visual quality above 44dB.
