An Efficient Steganographic Scheme Using Skin Tone Detection and Discrete Wavelet Transformation
Journal Title: International Journal of Computer Science & Engineering Technology - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
Steganography is a technique used for secret communication, in which secret information is embedded into a cover medium. The Secret information may be some text or image or even audio clip and the cover medium may be some image, audio or some word file. In this paper, we propose a steganographic scheme for text hiding and logo hiding. We use Natural Images as cover medium for hiding secret information. Steganography scheme used in this paper is based on skin tone detection. In this scheme secret information is embedded within skin portion of image. Skin tone detection is achieved using HSV (Hue, Saturation and Value) color space. Additionally DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) and LSB (Least Significant Bit) methods are used for embedding of secret information.
