Abstract
Data embedding into multimedia is growing hastily due to the raising concern to handle the security issues. The reversible data embedding schemes have become popular due to its demand in various applications such as military communication, remote sensing, etc. There is a tradeoff between embedding capacity and visual quality while maintaining the reversibility. We propose a reversible scheme which focuses on ameliorating the visual quality by minimizing the usage of nonzero quantized DCT coefficients during the embedding process.
