Watermarking using DCT and DWT on Pneumonia images

Abstract

Watermarking is a branch of the data hiding technique. Watermarking is a technique used to insert a copyright label on an image, so that the copyright of the image can be protected. Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) are techniques that can be used to watermark. In this study, the Discrete Cosine Transform and Discrete Wavelet Transform methods will be used to watermark images to 5 different host images. In the tests carried out, watermarking techniques will be compared using DCT, DWT, DCT-DWT combination and DWT-DCT combination. The results obtained in this study were the highest PSNR value obtained at 41.931, the highest SSIM obtained 0.99515, the highest entropy was also obtained at 7.4186, The best UACI value is 0.0071158 and the best NCPR value is obtained at 93.9068% then, for the best CC value is obtained at 0.99953. As well as the NCC value, the value obtained is the same all in each test, namely with a value of 1.
