Watermark redundancy using sudoku
… In this thesis, a new watermark redundancy using Sudoku watermarking is proposed. In Sudoku watermarking, an 81-digit Sudoku “serial” numbers are embedded into a cover image. These numbers are represented in the form of series of small image tiles, constructed from a given watermark. The 81 tiles …
