Abstract
ABSTRACTThe dual stego images based on data hiding has become popular in recent days. Since the embedding rate in dual stego images is very high. This paper proposes a new data encoding method based on maximum to the minimum histogram in reversible data hiding. This method estimates the encoded intensity from the message intensity and embeds the encoded intensity in the cover image. The stego image quality decreases the intensity of the hidden data which is high. The intensity of the data must be kept low to maintain a high-quality stego image. It is achieved using data encoding. Therefore, the proposed method uses new data encoding which converts the higher histogram data to lower intensity and the lower histogram data to higher intensity during the data embedding process. In the extraction process, the encoded intensities are decoded to message intensities to obtain the original data. The proposed data hiding approach has improved in terms of image quality (PSNR), structure similarity index measurements and embedding rate.
