Abstract

Techniques for information hiding have become increasingly more sophisticated and widespread. With high-resolution digital images as carriers, detecting hidden messages has become considerably more difficult. This paper describes an approach to detecting hidden messages in images that uses a wavelet-like decomposition to build higher-order statistical models of natural images. Support vector machines are then used to discriminate between untouched and adulterated images.
