Abstract

This study presents an efficient authentication scheme for digital image steganography on medical images benefiting from the combination of both techniques: Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Integer Wavelet Transform (IWT). We use two different strategies in this paper, where SVM is used first to separate the Region of Interest (ROI) from Non-Region of Interest (NROI) in the medical image. Then IWT is applied to embed secret information within the NROI part of the medical image (Cover Image). Moreover, we have applied a circular array and a shared secret key to enhance the robustness of the proposed scheme. The research looked into the various experimental analyses to establish the acceptability of the existing scheme. The simulation is performed to measure the imperceptibility using Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and to test the robustness using the Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM). The experimental result shows good imperceptibility with a PSNR of 64 dB and better robustness with a SSIM of 0.96 for the proposed steganographic scheme.
