ROBUST IMAGE WATERMARKING IN CONTOURLET DOMAIN USING GENETIC ALGORITHM
In this paper objective is to develop a robust image watermarking method in contourlet domain using GA(Genetic Algorithm) to improve the quality and robustness of the watermarked image, by reducing the (BER)Bit Error Rate to with stand against common image processing attacks. Selecting more Co-efficient in more directions is achieved by means of combining Laplacian Pyramid with Directional filter bank structure which captures directional information efficiently.
