Abstract
As a typical frequency-domain analysis method, quaternion discrete Fourier transform (QDFT) has been widely used in information hiding in color images. However, due to the sensitivity of QDFT to geometric attacks, existing QDFT-based information hiding schemes have limited ability in resisting geometric attacks. In this study, a kind of novel geometrically resilient polar QDFT (PQDFT) is constructed and the properties of the proposed PQDFT are analyzed. Subsequently, a PQDFT-based color image zero-hiding scheme robust to geometric attacks is proposed for lossless copyright protection of color images, which experimentally shows reasonable resistance against geometric and common attacks, indicating better robustness compared with the existing QDFT-based information hiding schemes and other leading-edge zero-hiding schemes.
