An Overview of Robust Digital Image Watermarking

This paper presents a thorough literature review of robust digital image watermarking applied in diverse applications. Researchers have already done lots of noteworthy work in the field of digital image watermarking. Even though, it is interesting to point out that current methods designed for image integrity may not be perfect. Therefore, the main aim of this paper is to offer a comprehensive reference source to the researchers involved in the design of robust digital image watermarking schemes, regardless of particular application areas. In this article, classification of various watermarking schemes with their properties and applications in the different domain is studied. The general structure of watermarking system, different quantitative matrices, and various categories of attacks are also discussed in this survey. The comparative and quantitative analysis of various watermarking schemes in the different domain will help the researchers in a quick review of existing algorithms.
