A Survey on Data Hiding and Compression Schemes

ABSTRACT: Data hiding has a vital role to play in information security. Using a data hiding technique, secret information is hidden into cover digital content. Compression techniques and data hiding techniques received much less attention from the research community and from industry than cryptography. In past research many data hiding and image compression techniques has been developed, it works independent module in both sender and server side. These method cause low efficiency, less security and also the low bit rate scheme requires more time to encode. Both image compression and data hiding (EJDHC) using residual codebooks with side match vector quantization (SMVQ). In this survey is to discuss on data hiding schemas and compression techniques such as JPEG, JPEG 2000, vector quantization, VQ compression and SMVQ. KEYWORDS: Data hiding, image compression, side match vector quantization I.INTRODUCTION Data hiding is a process to hide data into cover media. The data hiding process links two sets of data and a set of the embedded data and another set of the cover media data. The relationship between these two sets of data characterizes different applications. In authentication phase embedded data are closely related to the cover media. High Data hiding in images [1] 8-bit grayscale images are selected as the cover media called as cover images. Cover images with the secret messages embedded in the images. For data hiding methods, the image quality refers to the quality of the images. Most of the hiding techniques is based on manipulating the least-signi7cant-bit (LSB) planes by directly replacing the LSBs of the cover image with the message bits. LSB methods typically achieve high capacity. Another technique introduced in Data hiding [6] also can be classified into three domains, namely, spatial, transformative, and compression. In the spatial domain each pixel in the cover image is modified to hide the secret information. In the transformative domain the cover image is transformed into coefficients using well-known transform techniques the integer wavelet transform and the integer discrete cosine transform. Then to embed the secret information, these coefficients are altered. In the compression domain, the cover image is compressed to save the storage and the bandwidth space of the embedded image. Then, the image-compressed codes are processed to hide the secret information. Many image-compressed data hiding schemes have been noted in the literature because the sizes of the compressed images will be much smaller than those of the original images before and after data hiding.
