Abstract

Abstract: It is shown that the hybrid watermarking algorithm proposed in the paper "Hybrid watermarking algorithm based on singular value decomposition and Radon transform" by Rastegar et al. has a fundamental flaw which leads to false-positive problem in watermarking and should not be used for proof of ownership application. A countermeasure is then proposed to overcome the flaw exhibited in the algorithm.
