In this paper we introduce two innovative image and video watermarking
algorithms. The paper’s main emphasis is on the use of chaotic maps to boost the
algorithms’ security and resistance against attacks. By encrypting the watermark
information in a one dimensional chaotic map, we make the extraction of watermark for
potential attackers very hard. In another approach, we select embedding positions by a two
dimensional chaotic map which enables us to satisfactorily distribute watermark
information throughout the host signal. This prevents concentration of watermark data in a
corner of the host signal which effectively saves it from being a target for attacks that
include cropping of the signal. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed
schemes are quite resistant to many kinds of attacks which commonly threaten
watermarking algorithms.
