Generating Pattern from Image using Genetic Algorithm as Invisible Watermark

Abstract

Digital watermarking is a technique that embedded watermark in a different types of digital contents such that video, audio, and image to preservation these contents from reproduction or unauthorized copying. There are many mechanisms that contrived to optimized the robustness and imperceptible, newly genetic algorithm become very general in the area of artificial intelligence because their evolution naturally and their specially importance for improvement in several domains. This paper is proposed a trail system that embedded a unique pattern generated from image used as a watermark and embed this pattern in the original cover image instead of embedding the whole watermarking image inside the cover image. This pattern is 64-bit generated using genetic algorithm and selected after passing the five randomness test of security measures. This pattern is embedding in the main diagonal of the cover image and the result the watermarked image is imperceptible without any tamper, and the pattern that is generated is unique and robust enough so it's generated secure communication between sender and receiver.
