- Abstract
This paper presents a reference sharing mechanism-based self-embedding watermarking scheme. The host image is embedded with watermark bits including the reference data for content recovery and the authentication data for tampering location. The special encoding matrix derived from the generator matrix of selected systematic Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) code is adopted. The reference data is generated by encoding all the representative data of the original image blocks. On the receiver side, the tampered image blocks can be located by the authentication data. The reference data embedded in one image block can be shared by all the image blocks to restore the tampered content. The tampering coincidence problem can be avoided at the extreme. The maximal tampering rate is deduced theoretically. Experimental results show that, as long as the tampering rate is less than the maximal tampering rate, the content recovery is deterministic. The quality of recovered content does not decrease with the maximal tampering rate.
