Abstract Image steganography is a technique that hides secret information into the cover
image to protect information security. The current image steganography is mainly to embed
a smaller secret image in an area such as a texture of a larger-sized cover image, which will
cause the size of the secret image to be much smaller than the cover image. Therefore, the
problem of small steganographic capacity needs to be solved urgently. This paper proposes
a steganography framework that combines image compression. In this framework, the Vector Quantized Variational AutoEncoder (VQ-VAE) is used to achieve the compression More >
