| Summary: | Abstract This paper proposes an improved method for shiftable position-based dual-image reversible data hiding. During the procedure of embedding data, the total number of shiftable coordinates is set as the parameter to make a trade-off between distortion and embedding rate. First, the optimal parameter is sought and the one-to-one code table is generated according to the expected embedding rate. Then, the message data is embedded into the cover image through a simple and effective code table lookup scheme to generate two visually similar stego images. During the procedure of data extraction, the message can be extracted in a reverse manner. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method has higher PSNR (peak signal-to-noise ratio) values than our previous work in the case of high embedding rates.
