An International Journal
Special Issue on “Data Hiding for Multimedia Security”
Description
The digital information revolution has brought profound changes in our daily lives and the
advantages of digital information have also generated new challenges and opportunities for their
protection. Due to the tremendous advances in signal processing and transmission techniques, it is
easy to acquire, tamper and duplicate multimedia data. For the last two decades, digital data
hiding has received a great deal of attention from the scientific community to overcome the
aforementioned problems. Remarkable research efforts have been invested in recent years, trying
to export novel and applied real world engineering applications.
This special issue intents to bring together diversity of international researchers, experts and
practitioners who are currently working in the area of digital data hiding systems. It is envisaged
that this special issue will explore the advances of methods, techniques, and tools in solving the
unsolved questions in digital data hiding. Prominent researchers both from academia and industry
are invited to contribute their work for extending the existing knowledge in the field.
Topics
Research areas of relevance to this special issue would therefore include, but not only limited to:
• Digital watermarking
• Steganology (steganography and steganalysis)
