Self-reference based semi-fragile image watermarking scheme for authentication

In this paper, a novel image watermarking scheme is proposed. With the combination of Jpeg compression scheme, the watermark is embedded in to the host image by consideration of the relationship between the quantized pixels and the original pixels. Since the proposed scheme has a nice combination of Jpeg compression, the proposed scheme has good robustness against Jpeg compressions. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme has good localization ability, and the good robustness against general image processing.
