A high-capacity reversible data hiding method: HCRHide

Reversible data hiding methods have drawn considerable attention in the last decade, which allow full recovery of the original image used for embedding secret data as well as avert the third parties who should not realise the existence of hidden data. In this paper, we propose a high-capacity reversible data hiding method called HCRHide based on the Neighbour Mean Interpolation (NMI) method and the R-weighted Coding Method (RCM). Throughout a joint imperceptibility and data hiding capacity evaluation, results have approved high performance of the proposed method over the existing reversible data hiding methods.
