In today’s era, Fortifying robustness and imperceptibility of digital watermarking has become non trivial. In this paper, a digital image watermarking algorithm based on entropy of blocks and histogram is proposed to improve imperceptibility. In this, first host image is divided into blocks and then blocks are culled on the basis of entropy value for watermark embedding. After that, watermark is embedded into selected blocks by using histogram shape method. Histogram shape method divides selected blocks into groups and further locations of pixels within groups are identified for watermark embedding. Histogram shape method makes algorithm more robust against attacks. The integration of block based histogram shape approach and entropy makes algorithm more imperceptible. Experiment results demonstrate that proposed method has an excellent imperceptibility. Proposed method also resists against noise and scaling attacks. |
