The Method to Estimate Quality Degradation from Information Hiding in JPEG Compression Environment

JPEG 압축 환경의 정보은닉에서 영상 질 저하 예측방법

In these days, compressed file is useful in internet environment and has many advantages. So a lot of data hiding algorithms works on JPEG compressed file. Of course they know basic rules of transformation and quantization and they utilize those rules to implement their programming. But most of them evaluate the affection of data hiding after data modification. We propose how to predict the affection of data modification in course of data hiding process. Through some kind of experiments, several valuable facts are revealed which used in data hiding in compressed domain such as JPEG. These facts will improve existing data hiding algorithms (F3, F4 and F5 which including Matrix Encoding)[1],[5],[6].
