Digital image watermarking based on multiresolution decomposition

A multiresolution watermarking method with grey-level watermarking is presented. Both the watermark and the original image are decomposed into three-level multiresolution structures using different mechanisms. The decomposed watermark information is further coded by error correction coding. Each level of watermark information is embedded into the corresponding level of the transformed image. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is robust against common image manipulations
