Then, softmax is used to classify and effectively detect low embedding rate CNV-QIM steganography in VoIP streams. The experimental results show that for speech steganography of short samples with low embedding rate, the BiLSTM method in this paper has a superior detection accuracy than state-of-the-art methods of the RNN-SM (recurrent neural network-steganalysis model) and SS-QCCN (simplest strong quantization codeword correlation network). At an embedding rate of 20% and a duration of 3 s, the detection accuracy of BiLSTM method reaches 75.7%, which is higher than that of RNN-SM by 11.7%. Furthermore, the average testing time of samples (100% embedding) is 0.3 s, which shows that the method can realize real-time steganography detection of VoIP streams.
