A Particle Swarm Optimization And Block-Svd-Based Watermarking For Digital Images, Falgun Thakkar, Vinay Kumar Srivastava
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The major issues in most watermarking schemes are security, reliability, and robustness against attacks. To achieve these objectives in a watermarking algorithm, the selection of a scale factor to embed the watermark into the host image is a challenging problem. In this paper, a block singular value decomposition (SVD)-based reliable, robust, secure, and fast watermarking scheme is proposed that uses particle swarm optimization (PSO) in the selection of the scale factor. SVD is applied here on the nonoverlapping blocks of LL wavelet subbands. Selected singular values of these blocks are modified with the pixel values of the watermark image. Selected …

Proposing A New Clustering Method To Detect Phishing Websites, Morteza Arab, Mohammad Karim Sohrabi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Phishing websites are fake ones that are developed by ill-intentioned people to imitate real and legal websites. Most of these types of web pages have high visual similarities to hustle the victims. The victims of phishing websites may give their bank accounts, passwords, credit card numbers, and other important information to the designers and owners of phishing websites. The increasing number of phishing websites has become a great challenge in e-business in general and in electronic banking specifically. In the present study, a novel framework based on model-based clustering is introduced to fight against phishing websites. First, a model is …
