Abstract

Abstract: The existing histogram-based digital watermarking algorithms,on account of its strong capability to resist geometric attack and image processing attack,have been the focus and hotspot of data hiding domain. In order to further expand capacity and resolve the relationship issue of equal proportions,the author initially proposes a concept of multi-Bin and M-ary histogram digital watermarking algorithm by introducing a new multi-Bin adjustment strategy of image histogram,and designs a generalized multi-Bin and M-ary image digital watermarking algorithm. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm achieves at least 2 times embedding capacity than the existing related works,and can resist geometric attacks and image processing attacks to some extent on the basis of satisfying the image quality.

Key words: histogram modification, multi-Bin and M-ary, multi-Bin adjustment strategy
