Robust logo embedding technique for copyright protection

A new logo embedding scheme that is designed for JPEG coding is presented. A parent-child structure of the DCT coefficients in a block is utilized to embed a watermark with maximum strength and minimal perceptibility. A calculation of an optimum a posteriori threshold is also presented for watermark detection.
