Abstract

Abstract : The advancement of Internet technologies has led to the availability of audios, images, and videos in different forms. The unauthorized users are exploiting the use of multimedia by transmitting them on various Internet sites to earn money unethically without the intervention of the original copyright holder. Watermarking is a technique used to hide the signal known as watermark inside multimedia data that is not visible to the intruder to manipulate any information. In this paper, a secured watermarking approach is developed to tackle issues related to copyright protection and ownership identification. A Secured Graph Based Transform, Singular Valued Decomposition, and Hyperchaotic Encryption hybrid techniques are proposed. The watermark cannot be embedded in every frame of the video as it adds to the size of the video and watermark can be easily retrieved by an intruder. Therefore, the frame selection algorithm has been proposed in the given work. Adding watermark in the frame adds to the challenge of quality loss. The quality loss is addressed in this work. Various attacks have been applied on the watermarked frames to calculate the performance of the proposed technique using quality metrics: Peak Signal to Noise Ratio, Structural Similarity Index, Normalized Correlation, and Bit Error Rate. The results indicate that the proposed technique is effective against various attack scenarios.
