Reversible data hiding (RDH) has been intensively studied in the community of signal processing. Also referred as invertible or lossless data hiding, RDH is to embed a piece of information into a host signal to generate the marked one, from which the original signal can be exactly recovered after extracting the embedded data. The technique of RDH is useful in some sensitive applications where n...

A Novel method of Stegnography to achieve Reversible Data Hiding (RDH) is proposed using Histogram Modification (HM). In this paper the HM technique is revisited and a general framework to construct HM-based RDH is presented by simply designing the shifting and embedding functions on the cover image. The Secret Image is embedded inside the cover image using several steps of specific shifting of...

Highly abundant short-chain alcohol dehydrogenases (RDHs) in the retina were assumed to be involved in the recycling of 11-cis-retinal chromophore in the visual cycle. Mutations in human RDH genes are associated with Fundus albipunctatus, a mild form of night blindness (RDH5) and an autosomal recessive, childhood-onset severe retinal dystrophy (RDH12). Rdh12 knockout mice were found to be susce...

Badgers (Meles meles) have been the focus for the development of a pervasive model of social grouping behaviour, relevant to a number of carnivore species and other taxonomic groups – the Resource Dispersion Hypothesis (RDH). The RDH hypothesises that the dispersion and richness of resources in the environment provide a passive mechanism for the formation of groups, even without any direct bene...

Current indices used in the evaluation of antihypertensive treatment duration and homogeneity such as the trough-peak, smoothness index, and normalized smoothness index were designed to be applied to ambulatory blood pressure monitoring recordings from individual participants. Evaluation of antihypertensive treatment in populations is often carried out by calculating these individual indices fo...

The conventional reversible data hiding (RDH) algorithms often consider the host as a whole to embed a payload. In order to achieve satisfactory rate-distortion performance, the secret bits are embedded into the noise-like component of the host such as prediction errors. From the rate-distortion view, it may be not optimal since the data embedding units use the identical parameters. This motiva...

Ribitol+ strains of Escherichia coli acquire the ability to utilize xylitol by mutating to constitutive production of the coordinately controlled ribitol catabolic enzymes ribitol dehydrogenase (RDH) and D-ribulokinase (DRK). Such strains concomitantly acquire toxicity to galacitol and L-arabitol, and to D-arabitol if they are unable to utilize it for growth. Strains selected for resistance to ...

Today Reversible data hiding (RDH) is latest research area in field of data concealment scheme. In RDH, the data to be cover up is embedded in the cover image and at the origin side both conceal secret and cover image is reconstructed without any misrepresentation. In this paper we represent a RDH technique based on side match vector quantization for images. Two function data hiding and image c...

The traditional color image reversible data hiding (RDH) techniques mainly focus on utilizing inter-channel correlations to improve embedding performance, but mostly have poor time efficiency. Nevertheless, the information redundancy in the color image is not fully exploited. In this paper, a new sorting strategy and a payload partition scheme are proposed. Thus, a novel RDH method for color im...
