Abstract: In order to improve the capacity of reversible data hiding algorithm, a new reversible data hiding algorithm based on interpolation images was proposed. The original image is enlarged with the nearest neighbor interpolation algorithm, and then the interpolation image is used as the cover image to embed the secret bits. The difference between the interpolated pixels and the original pixels are calculated and the number of the secret information is determined by the difference. The stego-image is obtained with the secret bits embedded into the interpolated pixels. After the secret information is extracted, the cover image can be recovered by down sampling the stego-image, and the reversible data hiding can be realized. Experiments result show that the proposed algorithm can achieve higher capacity and has good visual effects with the same payload than the other algorithms.
