Also, the paper investigates the role of Contourlet Transform (CT) versus Wavelet Transform (WT) in providing robust image watermarking. Two measures are utilized in the comparison between the waveletbased and the contourlet-based methods; Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Normalized Cross-Correlation (NCC). Experimental results reveal that the introduced algorithm is robust against different attacks and has good results compared to the contourlet-based algorithm.</p> <iframe src="https://publications.waset.org/6996.pdf" style="width:100%; height:400px;" frameborder="0"></iframe> <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=image%20watermarking%3B%20discrete%20wavelet%20transform" title="image watermarking; discrete wavelet transform">image watermarking; discrete wavelet transform</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=discrete%20contourlet%20transform" title=" discrete contourlet transform"> discrete contourlet transform</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=multiple%20description%20coding" title=" multiple description coding"> multiple description coding</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=quantization%20index%20modulation" title=" quantization index modulation"> quantization index modulation</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Digital Object Identifier (DOI):</strong> <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1332998" target="_blank">doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1332998</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/contourlet-versus-wavelet-transform-for-a-robust-digital-image-watermarking-technique" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/apa" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">APA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/bibtex" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">BibTeX</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/chicago" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Chicago</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/endnote" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">EndNote</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/harvard" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Harvard</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/json" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">JSON</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/mla" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">MLA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/ris" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">RIS</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/xml" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">XML</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996/iso690" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">ISO 690</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/6996.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">2067</span> </span> <p class="card-text"><strong>References:</strong></p> <br>[1] Wang Y, Alan P.
