A key issue is how to organize the data to adapt the challenges of data analysis. This paper borrows ideas from the Internet of things (IOT) into the digital world and organize the data entities to form a network, the Internet of data (IOD), which has huge potential in data-intensive applications. In the IOD, data hiding technology is utilized to embed virtual tags, which record all the activities of the data entities since they are created, into every data entity in the system. The IOD aims to organize the data to be interconnected as a network and collect useful information for data identification, data tracing, data vitalization and further data analysis.展开更多

Histogram Shifting (HS) of motion vector values is used efficiently in reversible data hiding to embed data. By designating a specific decoded reference frame, the distortion accumulation effects due to modification of the motion vectors is overcome. All the extracted information can be recovered without loss of the original compressed video carrier. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is simple, has higher capacity and invisibility than other existing schemes, and can adjust the relationship between capacity and invisibility according to embedded load.展开更多

Firstly, we provide the conception of SRS distance statistics and deduce its statistical distribution. Because the SRS distance statistics can effectively reflect the correlation of the sequence, SRS has statistical features when the image bit plane sequence equals the image width. Using this characteristic, the steganalytic method is fulfilled by the distinct test of Poisson distribution. Experimental results show a good performance for detecting LSB matching steganographic method in still images. By the way, the proposed method is not designed for specific steganographic algorithms and has good generality.展开更多

However, the scheme is not significantly efficient due to the difficulty of constructing NIZK. We first show that a non-interactive witness indistinguishable (NlWl) proof system and a non-interactive witness hiding (NIWH) proof system are easier and more efficient proof models than NIZK in some cases. Furthermore, the witnesses em- ployed in these two protocols (NlWl and NIWT) cannot also be distinguished by the verifiers. Combined with the E-protocol, we then construct NlWl and NIWH proofs for any NP statement under the existence of one-way functions and show that each proof is different from those under the existence of trapdoor permutations, Finally, based on our NlWl and NIWH proofs, we construct delegateable signature schemes under the existence of one-way functions, which are more efficient than Barak's scheme under the existence of trapdoor permutations.展开更多

No method is known to be applicable to the estimation of stochastic modulation steganography. By analyzing the distributions of the horizontal pixel difference of images before and after stochastic modulation embedding, we present a new steganalytic approach to accurately estimate the length of secret message in stochastic modulation steganography. The pro- posed method first establishes a model describing the statistical relationship among the differences of the cover image, stego-image and stego-noise. In the case of stegoimage-only steganalysis, rough estimate of the distributional parameters of the cover image's pixel difference is obtained with the use of the provided stego-image. And grid search and Chi-square goodness of fit test are exploited to estimate the length of the secret message embedded with stochastic modulation steganography. The experimental results demonstrate that our new approach is effective for steganalyzing stochastic modulation steganography and accurately estimating the length of the secret message.展开更多
