Abstract

A binary image data hiding scheme with high capacity is proposed in this paper, which minimizes the flipping distortion measured by the proposed distortion function. In the proposed distortion function, both pixels cluster and boundary connectivity are considered to systematically evaluate the flipping distortion. Some preprocesses and postprocesses are presented to handle the unexpected distortion of embedding. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme possesses a good visual quality of stego images in both low and high capacity contexts.
