Abstract:

In order to improve the embedded capacity and anti-interference capability of the coverless steganography algorithm, this paper proposes a texture synthesis information hiding scheme based on LBP texture analysis. Firstly, the original small-size texture image is selected and divided into uniform pixel blocks, the LBP value of each pixel in the image blocks is  calculated, and the LBP value with the largest LBP distribution is taken as the representive information of the image block. Secondly, when hiding the secret information, the pseudo-random sequence is generated with a specified key to determine the position of the texture candidate block placed on the white paper, then the candidate block is selected according to the value of the secret information and placed on the designated position on the white paper, and the remaining blank areas are filled by the texture synthesis method. Inversely, when extracting secret information, the position of the steganography image block is obtained according to the pseudo-random sequence generated by the key, then the LBP value of each image block with the largest distribution is calculated to obtain the secret information. Experimental results show that the steganography image generated by this method has good visual effect and further improves the embedded capacity and anti-interference ability.
