TY - JOUR ID - TI - Proposed Video Watermarking Algorithm based on Edge or Corner Regions AU - Rusul N. Abbas AU - Nidaa F. Hassan PY - 2018 VL - 36 IS - 1 Part (B) Scientific SP - 25 EP - 32 JO - Engineering and Technology Journal مجلة الهندسة والتكنولوجيا SN - 16816900 24120758 AB - In this research, a watermark algorithm is proposed to embed a secretmessage in a digital video. The proposed algorithm exploits edges and cornersregions in images, to be hosts for hiding secret bits. Embedding in these regionsis consider optimal since these regions featuring with colors variation, soembedding will not effect on uniform distribution of colors, and on transparencyrequirement. The process of embedding and extracting watermarked massage isimplemented by decomposition digital video to several images (frames), thenselecting the edges and corners regions to be host locations, Least SignificantBit (LSB) techniques are used to embed watermarked message in images ofdigital video. Investigations results proved that number of hidden bits in cornerregion is small in comparison with edges regions, but it is harder to detect. Textmessage before embedded in video frames is encrypted by Advanced EncryptionAlgorithm (AES) to increase security and robustness of watermarking process.
