摘要

In this paper, we propose a scheme of watermark embedding and extracting based on DCT transform and JPEG quantization table. Firstly, the image is divided into non-overlapping 8 X 8 blocks, and each block is transformed by DCT. Then, a pair of points with the same quantization value is selected by the JPEG quantization table in order to embed one watermark bit, and the adjustment coefficients are adaptively selected by using the visual masking property of HVS. The experimental results presented in this paper showed that our proposed algorithm is robust to JPEG compression under different quality factors.
