Abstract
- With the widespread use of medical images in telemedicine, personal information may be leaked. The traditional zero-watermarking technology has poor robustness under large-scale attacks. At the same time, most of the zero-watermarking information generated is a binary sequence with a single information structure. In order to effectively solve the poor robustness problem of traditional zero-watermarking under large-scale attacks, a color zero-watermarking algorithm for medical images based on bidimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD)-Schur decomposition and color visual cryptography is proposed. Firstly, the color carrier image and the color copyright logo are decomposed into R, G, and B three color components, respectively, and the feature value of each sub-block are extracted by wavelet transform, BEMD decomposition, block operation, and Schur decomposition. Then, the R, G, and B components of the copyright logo are scrambled by Arnold scramble and converted into binary watermark information. Finally, a color visual cryptography scheme is proposed to generate two color shared images based on the carrier characteristics and copyright information. One shared image is used to generate a color zero-watermark, and the other is used for copyright authentication phase. Experimental results show that this algorithm has strong robustness and stability in resisting large-scale noise attacks, filtering attacks, JPEG compression, cropping attacks, and translation attacks at different positions. Compared with similar zero-watermarking algorithms, the robust performance is improved by about 10%, and it can adapt to more complex network environments.
