Reversible data hiding in encrypted images without additional information transmission

作者：

Highlights：

• This paper proposes an RDHEI method without any additional information transmission between the image owner and the data hider.

• The security level has a significant improvement compared to the methods with preprocessing.

• The proposed method improves the performance in terms of embedding and reversibility compared to the baseline methods.

• The embedding performance is not influenced by the image contents, and the algorithmic complexity is decreased.
