A User Friendly GUI Based Benchmark for Image Watermarking

Watermarking is a technique used to hide data or identify information within digital multimedia. Bench-marking is used to evaluate the watermarking algorithms. Different benchmarks are available for digital watermarking. These benchmarks work efficiently but they are quite complex and difficult to understand, so a new benchmark is introduced in this paper which is GUI (Graphical user interface) based and implemented in MATLAB. It also includes brief introduction about digital watermarking, different attacks and existing benchmarks.
