Reversible Data Hiding Based on Block Median Preservation and image local characteristic

Reversible data hiding is a technique that can embed information into cover media (image, video, voice signal) and can recover the original cover media after extracting the embedded information. In this papa, we propose a new reversible data hiding methods that based on block median preservation and the image local characteristic. By using the median value of a block, a high payload can be got and by considering the image local characteristic, a lot of distortion can be avoided and a high PSNR can be got. In the experiment, our methods can generate better result than the previous reversible data hiding methods.
