Deep Learning Hierarchical Representations for Image Steganalysis.

Nowadays, the prevailing detectors of steganographic communication in digital images mainly consist of three steps, i.e., residual computation, feature extraction, and binary classification. In this paper, we present an alternative approach to steganalysis of digital images based on convolutional neural network (CNN), which is shown to be able to well replicate and optimize these key steps in a un...
