Variable size of blocks for embedding watermark images using ISB technique

In Intermediate Significant Bits (ISB) model, the watermarking technique was shown to be made robust against different types of attacks with maintaining the quality of watermarked images. In addition, ISB model was found to work properly with many other techniques based on the Least Significant Bits...

Most significant bits of watermark image should be embedded within the big size of blocks and the least significant bits of watermark image would be embedded within small size of blocks since most significant bits are more important for image quality than the least significant bits.
