The　digital　image　watermarking　field　addresses　the　problem　of　digital　image　authentication　and　integrity.　In　this　paper　we　propose　a　novel　color　image　watermarking　scheme　based　on　image　self-embedding　techniques.　The　basic　principle　of　this　scheme　is　to　use　bilinear　interpolation　for　the　original　image.　Then　we　use　the　discrete　wavelet　transform　(DWT)　to　embed　the　watermark　image.　Experimental　results　show　that　the　proposed　scheme　can　self-embed　the　original　image,　and　extract　the　watermark　information　with　satisfied　image　visual　quality.　Simulation　results　show　that　the　proposed　scheme　is　more　robust.　©　2010　IEEE.
