Efficient reversible hiding technique based on pairwise prediction error expansion
Being reversible, the original digital content can be completely restored after data extraction. Prediction-error expansion (PEE) is an important method in reversible watermarking. PEE can embed large payload with low distortion into digital images. PEE is advantageous use in image redundancy usually gives better performance. But, the correlations between prediction-errors are not regarded and not use in conventional PEE based methods. In PEE, the prediction-errors are expanded and modified individually for embedding the data.
