Abstract :
We present a novel blind watermarking method for copyright protection. Two distance measures are devised to genetically select the significant wavelet singularities for lossless and robust embedding. Then, forward and backward pair checksum generated from the embedded singularities is adopted to alternately correct the attacked image errors for blind retrieval.
