However, many existing techniques are not as one might have expected for robustness and capacity simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a robust semi-blind image watermarking scheme with a high capacity. Firstly, we perform a discrete wavelet transformation (DWT) transformation on the carrier image. Then, the watermark images are compressed via a compressive sampling technique for saving storage space. Thirdly, a Combination of One and Two-Dimensional Chaotic Map based on the Tent and Logistic map (TL-COTDCM) is used to scramble the compressed watermark image with high security and dramatically reduce the false positive problem (FPP). Finally, a singular value decomposition (SVD) component is used to embed into the decomposed carrier image to finish the embedding process. With this scheme, eight 256\u00d7256 grayscale watermark images are perfectly embedded into a 512\u00d7512 carrier image, the capacity of which is eight times over that of the existing watermark techniques on average. The scheme has been tested through several common attacks on high strength, and the experiment results show the superiority of our method via the two most used evaluation indicators, normalized correlation coefficient (NCC) values and the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR). Our method outperforms the state-of-the-art in the aspects of robustness, security, and capacity of digital watermarking, which exhibits great potential in multimedia application in the immediate future.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e24101486","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,18]],"date-time":"2022-10-18T21:18:02Z","timestamp":1666127882000},"page":"1486","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["A Hyper-Chaotically Encrypted Robust Digital Image Watermarking Method with Large Capacity Using Compress Sensing on a Hybrid Domain"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Zhen","family":"Yang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Science and Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China"},{"name":"School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Lanzhou Jiaotong University, Lanzhou 730070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qingwei","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Science and Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yunliang","family":"Qi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Science and Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shouliang","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Science and Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fengyuan","family":"Ren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Science and Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, China"},{"name":"Tsinghua National Laboratory for Information Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"272","article-title":"A Review on Digital Image Watermarking","volume":"V4","author":"Kaushal","year":"2015","journal-title":"Int.
