Abstract

This paper presents a new robust watermarking scheme for color image based on a block probability inspatial domain. A binary watermark image is permutated using sequence numbers generated by a secret key and Gray code, and then embedded four times in different positions by a secret key. Each bit of the binary encoded watermark is embedded by modifying the intensities of anon-overlapping block of 8*8 of the blue component ofthe host image. The extraction of the watermark is bycomparing the intensities of a block of 8*8 of the watermarked and the original images and calculating the probability of detecting '0' or '1'. Tested by benchmark Stirmark 4.0, the experimental results show that the proposed scheme is robust and secure against a widerange of image processing operations.
