Abstract

This paper presents a novel reversible data hiding algorithm, which can recover the original image without distortion from the marked image after the hidden data have been extracted. This algorithm utilizes the zero or the minimum point of the histogram and slightly modifies the pixel values to embed data. It can embed more data as compared to most of the existing reversible data hiding algorithms. A theoretical proof and numerous experiments show that the PSNR of the marked image generated by this method is always above 48 dB, which is much higher than other reversible data hiding algorithms. The algorithm has been applied to a wide range of different images successfully. Some experimental results are presented to demonstrate the validity of the algorithm.
