Abstract

A system and method are disclosed which may include subjecting an original, pixel domain image to an Integer Wavelet Transform (IWT) to obtain a matrix of IWT coefficients; selecting a plurality of the IWT coefficients for incorporation of information therein; and setting signs for the plurality of selected IWT coefficients according to bit values of a plurality of respective data bits. The system and method can also include subjecting a marked pixel domain image to an Integer Wavelet Transform to obtain a matrix of wavelet coefficients; selecting a plurality of the coefficients from the matrix that contain embedded information; and for each selected coefficient, extracting the data bit embedded in the coefficient, a bit value of the extracted data bit determined based on a sign of the coefficient.
