Abstract

Reversible data hiding is very useful for some extremely image such like medical images and military images. In the reversible data hiding schemes, some schemes are good performance at hiding capacity but have a bad stego image quality, some schemes are good stego image quality but have a low hiding capacity. It is difficult to find the balance between the hiding capacity and stego image quality. In this paper, a novel reversible data hiding scheme is proposed. The proposed scheme uses a new embedding method, which is called Even-Odd embedding method, to keep the stego image quality in an acceptable level, and uses the multi-layer embedding to increase the hiding capacity. The experimental results demonstrate that no matter how much secret data is embedded, the stego image quality is about 54dB in the proposed scheme.
