Abstract
Digital image watermark is an invisible mark embedded in an image that can be used for copyright protection. The current paper
proposes a new watermarking scheme by improving image normalization based watermarking (INW). Image normalization is based
on the moments of the image, however, in general, RST attacks bring the image boundary cropping and the moments are not preserved
original ones. Thereafter the normalized images of before and after are not same form. To solve the cropping problem of INW,
Invariant Centroid (IC) is proposed and the only central region(R), which has less cropping possibility by RST, is used for normalization. In addition, the watermark is embedded and detected
in the normalized form of the image. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed watermarking scheme is robust to
RST attacks with cropping.
