Abstract

In the present day, images and videos account for nearly 80% of all the data transmitted during our daily activities. This work employs a combination of novel stegnography and data compression methodologies. So that the stego image generated while using stegnograpghy to the source textual image could be further compacted in an efficient and productive way and easily transmitted over the web. The initial inputs, textual images and images, are both pre-processed using ...
