Comparison of Quantization Index Modulation and Forbidden Zone Data Hiding for compressed domain video data hiding

Data hiding is now a part of daily life through various applications. In this work, we apply two data hiding methods, quantization index modulation and forbidden zone data hiding, to video applications. We place these methods into a general video data hiding scheme and compare their performance against compression attacks. The results of the experiments with typical TV content indicate the superiority of FZDH, specifically for powerful attacks.
