Study of Pixel Indicator Technique on SSIM and PSNR Based Parameters

Abstract

Information hiding and its security is the most challenging task in this digital environment. In this paper, an approach named P.I.T (Pixel Indicator Technique) is used to obtain the solutions of such challenges. In P.I.T, a pixel of covered image is divided into 3-channels named as R, G and B, wherein R component used as indicator and G and B as data channels. Images of dimension 512*512 are taken into experiment to hide data of different sizes 4KB, 8KB and 16KB. Further the results are analyzed in terms of PSNR and SSIM based parameters.
