Abstract
Digital watermarking technology protects information security from the dimension of the existence of hidden information. At present, most watermarking algorithms only focus on the embedding and extraction of secret information, which usually brings permanent distortion to the carrier. This poses many challenges in scenarios that require high data authentication, such as medical image processing and military communications. This paper proposes a robust reversible watermarking algorithm for carriers based on block chain authentication. It is designed to mark the tampered location of the carrier with a fragile watermark, and restore the tampered information through authentication before and after, so that the peak signal-to-noise ratio of the restored carrier can be greatly improved when tampering occurs. The experimental results show that the scheme has good recovery ability in the scene of tampering with the watermark image.
