Handwritten Signature Watermarking and Extraction Technique Inspired by Principle of Segregation

In this paper, the authors propose a technique for embedding handwritten signature image data into color images and extracting embedded image data from color images. For the sake of security, two watermarked images will be transmitted in different times from the sender's end to the receiver's end, in due course, from two transmitted images, at the receiver's end, original handwritten signature image data will be extracted; a new way of data hiding. From 1994 onward, the use and popularity of Internet in business particular has explored the area of Intellectual Property protection techniques.
