Abstract

This paper¹ proposes a lossless data hiding technique for JPEG images based on histogram pairs. It embeds data into the JPEG quantized 8×8 block DCT coefficients and can achieve good performance in terms of PSNR versus payload through manipulating histogram pairs with optimum threshold and optimum region of the JPEG DCT coefficients. It can obtain higher payload than the prior arts. In addition, the increase of JPEG file size after data embedding remains unnoticeable. These have been verified by our extensive experiments. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
