Optimized watermarking technique using self-adaptive differential evolution based on redundant discrete wavelet transform and singular value decomposition

作者：

Highlights：

• The proposed method satisfies all of the watermarking requirements simultaneously.

• Scaling factors are optimized using self-adaptive differential evolution algorithm.

• Fitness function assures a pre-defined imperceptibility while maximizing robustness.

• A verification process is prepared to solve the false positive problem.
