Abstract

The invention discloses a self-adaptive method for watermarking intensive image texture, which mainly solves the problems that the prior method is low in robustness and efficiency, and poor in transparency. When a watermark is embedded in the method, an intensive-texture region of an image is extracted by use of the comprehensive action of top-hat transformation and bottom-hat transformation in gray-value morphology; the intensive-texture region of a spatial domain is mapped onto a wavelet coefficient of a corresponding transform domain so as to embed the watermark; and self-adaptive watermark-embedding strength is controlled by image region brightness, texture and frequency band characteristics corresponding to the wavelet coefficient. When the watermark is extracted, the wavelet coefficient of the watermark to be extracted is determined by utilizing the position information Key 1 of the intensive image texture, and the watermark is extracted by utilizing watermark-embedding strength information Key 2. The method is characterized by simplicity, rapidness, high efficiency and universality, has strong robustness to various noise-adding attacks, JPEG compression, wiener filter processing and geometric attacks, and can be used for protecting the copyright security of digital multimedia products.

[0039] 1. Mathematical Morphology

[0040] Mathematical morphology is a mathematical tool that has developed rapidly in recent years and is widely used to analyze images based on morphology. The basic idea is to use structural elements with a certain shape to measure and extract the corresponding shape in the image to achieve image analysis and recognition. the goal of. The mathematical basis and language used in mathematical morphology are set theory, which can simplify image data, maintain shape characteristics, remove irrelevant structures, and have a natural parallel implementation structure.

[0041] Binary Morphology regards a binary image as a collection and explores it with structural elements. It is a processing process for collections. The algorithm is simple, suitable for parallel processing, easy to implement in hardware, and suitable for binary processing. Image segmentation, thinning, skeleton extraction, edge extraction...
