With the development of cloud computing, high-capacity reversible data hiding in an encrypted image (RDHEI) has attracted increasing attention. The main idea of RDHEI is that an image owner encrypts a cover image, and then a data hider embeds secret information in the encrypted image. With the information hiding key, a receiver can extract the embedded data from the hidden image; with the encryption key, the receiver reconstructs the original image. In this paper, we can embed data in the form of random bits or scanned documents. The proposed method takes full advantage of the spatial correlation in the original images to vacate the room for embedding information before image encryption. By jointly using Sudoku and Arnold chaos encryption, the encrypted images retain the vacated room. Before the data hiding phase, the secret information is preprocessed by a halftone, quadtree, and S-BOX transformation. The experimental results prove that the proposed method not only realizes high-capacity reversible data hiding in encrypted images but also reconstructs the original image completely.

A novel reversible data hiding algorithm for encrypted image based on interpolation error expansion is proposed. The proposed method is an improved version of Shiu' s. His work does not make full use of the correlation of the neighbor pixels and some additional side information is needed. The proposed method adopts the interpolation prediction method to fully exploit the pixel correlation and employ the Paillier public key encryption method. The algorithm is reversible. In the proposed method, less side information is demanded. The experiment has verified the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method, and the better embedding performance can be obtained, compared with some existing RDHEI-P methods. Specifically, the final embedding capacity can be up to 0.74 bpp (bit per pixel), while the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) for the marked image Lena is 35 dB. This is significantly higher than Shiu's method which is about 0.5 bpp.

Data hiding in encrypted image is a recent popular topic of data security. In this paper, we propose a reversible data hiding algorithm with pixel prediction and additive homomorphism for encrypted image. Specifically, the proposed algorithm applies pixel prediction to the input image for generating a cover image for data embedding, referred to as the preprocessed image. The preprocessed image is then encrypted by additive homomorphism. Secret data is finally embedded into the encrypted image via modular 256 addition. During secret data extraction and image recovery, addition homomorphism and pixel prediction are jointly used. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can accurately recover original image and reach high embedding capacity and good visual quality. Comparisons show that the proposed algorithm outperforms some recent algorithms in embedding capacity and visual quality.
