Blind Watermarking of Color Medical Images Using Hadamard Transform and Fractional-Order Moments.

This paper proposes a new blind, color image watermarking method using fast Walsh-Hadamard transformation (FWHT) and multi-channel fractional Legendre-Fourier moments (MFrLFMs). The input host color image is first split into 4 × 4 non-interfering blocks, and the MFrLFMs are computed for each block, where proper MFrLFMs coefficients are selected and FWHT is applied on the selected coefficients. The scrambled binary watermark has been inserted in the quantized selected MFrLFMs coefficients.
