Abstract

For the purpose of designing watermark to be robust against image modification such as geometric modification (rotating, cutting, enlarging/shrinking, etc.), compression, and blurring, the watermark is embedded in frequency domain after formed as 2 dimensional shape, for example radial or concentric shape. In detecting watermark, it is possible to effectively detect the watermark, by using relation to a generated watermark in case where the peak is detected.
