Abstract Reversible data hiding in encrypted images (RDH-EI) technology is widely
used in cloud storage for image privacy protection. In order to improve the embedding
capacity of the RDH-EI algorithm and the security of the encrypted images, we proposed
a reversible data hiding algorithm for encrypted images based on prediction and adaptive
classification scrambling. First, the prediction error image is obtained by a novel
prediction method before encryption. Then, the image pixel values are divided into two
categories by the threshold range, which is selected adaptively according to the image
content. Multiple high-significant bits of pixels More >
