RST Invarian Watermarking Scheme Based on SIFT Feature and Pseudo-Zernike Moment

RST invarian watermarking scheme is proposed in this paper based on the SIFT feature points and improved pseudo-Zernike moment. Firstly, feature points are detected using SIFT, and some suitable points are selected to form localized feature regions which are scaled to a standard sized. After computing these regions by the improved pseudo-Zernike moments of these regions , the digital watermark are embedded into the host image by quantizing some low-lever moments. Experimental results show this scheme is robust against the rotation, shearing, JPEG compression, noise and filtering attack.
