A lossless Data Hiding method based on inverted LSB technique

Reversible Data Hiding is the technique of concealing covert information in cover media to ease secure communication without compromising the quality of cover media after extracting the message. The primary purpose of this paper is to implement RDH by generating a blueprint of the cover image, in which complemented message is hidden using inverted bit LSB [1] technique. Results prove that proposed method show improvement of higher PSNR and lower MSE.
