Generalized Local Optimality for Video Steganalysis in Motion Vector Domain

The local optimality of motion vectors (MVs) is an intrinsic property in video coding, and any modifications to the MVs will inevitably destroy this optimality, making it a sensitive indicator of steganography in the MV domain. Thus the local optimality is commonly used to design steganalytic features, and the estimation for local optimality has become a top priority in video steganalysis. However, the local optimality in existing works is often estimated inaccurately or using an unreasonable assumption, limiting its capability in steganalysis. In this paper, we propose to estimate the local optimality in a more reasonable and comprehensive fashion, and generalize the concept of local optimality in two aspects. First, the local optimality measured in a rate-distortion sense is jointly determined by MV and predicted motion vector (PMV), and the variability of PMV will affect the estimation for local optimality. Hence we generalize the local optimality from a static estimation to a dynamic one. Second, the PMV is a special case of MV, and can also reflect the embedding traces in MVs. So we generalize the local optimality from the MV domain to the PMV domain. Based on the two generalizations of local optimality, we construct new types of steganalytic features and also propose feature symmetrization rules to reduce feature dimension. Extensive experiments performed on three databases demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed features, which achieve state-of-the-art in both accuracy and robustness in various conditions, including cover source mismatch, video prediction methods, video codecs, and video resolutions.
