Abstract

Reversible data hiding technology has currently attracted great attention recently. Using reversible data hiding methods, original cover images can be recovered losslessly from the cover image embedded information. In this paper, spatial reversible data hiding schemes based on histogram modification of difference images are discussed, in which the pixel gray values of difference image are altered slightly to perform the embedding and extraction. Specifically, we design two reversible data hiding schemes based on S-type scanning and Hilbert curve scanning, and compare them with the reversible data hiding scheme by difference between adjacent columns of the cover image. Embedding capacity and PSNR are calculated to figure out how block size, difference manner and embedding level influence the effect of hiding.
