ABSTRACT

In this project an information theoretic model for image watermarking and data hiding systems is presented here. The fundamental capacity limits of these systems are determined by the statistical model used for the host image, by the distortion constraints on the data hider and the attacker, and by the information available to the data hider, to the attacker, and to the decoder. We present a parametric statistical model for visual images in the wavelet transform domain. We characterize the joint densities of coefficient magnitudes at adjacent spatial locations, adjacent orientations, and adjacent spatial scales. The model accounts for the statistics of a wide variety of visual images. We consider wavelet statistical models for images and compute data-hiding capacity for compressed and uncompressed host-image sources. Closed form expressions are obtained under sparse-model approximations using MATLAB. The objective of our project could be achieved by the proper implementation which is mentioned above. The present project could be enhanced in future for hiding one image in another image in the security purpose in many fields.
