description | The whole world is quickly transforming into an information world with the setup of smart cities, among other things. Information and other forms of privacy are therefore at risk due to the growing intelligence of hackers. Therefore, to enhance the security of information, a capacity-raising interpolation method based on histogram shifting is proposed. According to the experimental results, the capacity-raising interpolation method based on histogram shifting produces high-quality images with a significantly high embedding capacity, outperforming other methods. Apart from the already-mentioned advantages, the proposed method is reversible and can recover images in a lossless manner. |
