Advanced Side-Match Vector Quantization and Image Inpainting Used For Data Hiding and Compression
Abstract
quantization and image inpainting are proposed for compressing and
then concealing the secret data. The process of covering up the data
includes hiding the private or secret data which could be in the form
of an image, or an audio or video. The two techniques of
compression and hiding are combined as a specific module.
At the sender’s side, all the blocks except in the uppermost row and
the leftmost column, are embedded with some secret data and are
compressed simultaneously. This is done by either SMVQ or image
inpainting and an indicator bit 1 is appended to it. The blocks in the
topmost row and the leftmost column are considered as the complex
blocks and are compressed using the vector quantization (VQ) and
an indicator bit 0 is appended to it. The indicator bits are used for
segmenting the compressed blocks into sections. Based on the index
value of each segmented section, extraction of secret bits and the
decompression of the image can be done at the receiver side.
