Summary:Reversible watermarking has merged over the past few years as a promising solution for copyright protection, especially for applications like remote sensing, medical imaging and military applications which require lossless recovery of the host media. In this paper, we aim to extend the additive interpolation error expansion technique in [16]. We will consider the human visual system (HVS) to improve the embedding rate while maintaining the image visual quality. To this end, the just noticeable difference (JND) is used to embed more watermark bits. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the embedding rate while preserving the image visual quality.
