Digital image watermarking based on angle quantization in discrete contourlet transform

A robust and transparent watermarking scheme based on contourlet transform and quantization index modulation is proposed in this paper. In proposal algorithm, after taking contourlet, the coefficients are divided into three quadrants by using the symmetric property of the contourlet coefficients, th...
