Abstract

This paper investigates practical strategies for distributing payload across images with content-adaptive steganography and for pooling outputs of a single-image detector for steganalysis. Adopting a statistical model for the detector's output, the steganographer minimizes the power of the most powerful detector of an omniscient Warden, while the Warden, informed by the payload spreading strategy, detects with the likelihood ratio test in the form of a matched filter. Experimental results with state-of-the-art content-adaptive additive embedding schemes and rich models are included to show the relevance of the results.
