Hybrid DWT-SVD video watermarking

Video watermarking is a relatively new technology that has been proposed to solve the problem of illegal manipulation and distribution of digital video. By virtue of this technology, copyright information is embedded in the video data to provide ownership verification. In this paper, we propose an effective, robust, and imperceptible video watermarking algorithm. The effectiveness of algorithm is brought by virtue of applying a cascade of two powerful mathematical transforms; the discrete wavelets transform (DWT) and the singular value decomposition (SVD). Reported experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
