StegColNet: Steganalysis based on an ensemble colorspace approach
Image steganography refers to the process of hiding information inside images. Steganalysis is the process of detecting a steganographic image. We introduce a steganalysis approach that uses an ensemble color space model to obtain a weighted concatenated feature activation map. The concatenated map helps to obtain certain features explicit to each color space. We use a levy-flight grey wolf optimization strategy to reduce the number of features selected in the map. We then use these features to classify the image into one of two classes: whether the given image has secret information stored or not. Extensive experiments have been done on a large scale dataset extracted from the Bossbase dataset. Also, we show that the model can be transferred to different datasets and perform extensive experiments on a mixture of datasets. Our results show that the proposed approach outperforms the recent state of the art deep learning steganalytical approaches by 2.32 percent on average for 0.2 bits per channel (bpc) and 1.87 percent on average for 0.4 bpc.

Optimized $k$-means color quantization of digital images in machine-based and human perception-based colorspaces
Color quantization represents an image using a fraction of its original number of colors while only minimally losing its visual quality. The $k$-means algorithm is commonly used in this context, but has mostly been appli…
Structural Design of Convolutional Neural Networks for Steganalysis
Recent studies have indicated that the architectures of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) tailored for computer vision may not be best suited to image steganalysis. In this letter, we report a CNN architecture that ta…

Image SegmentationDeep learning is a good steganalysis tool when embedding key is reused for different images, even if there is a cover source-mismatch
Since the BOSS competition, in 2010, most steganalysis approaches use a learning methodology involving two steps: feature extraction, such as the Rich Models (RM), for the image representation, and use of the Ensemble Cl…
