To increase the amount of embedded information hidden in digital image
a hiding algorithm based on bit-plane and the information of HVS (human visual system)is proposed. Our proposed method takes both
the position of the image and changes in the pixel gray values into account. First of all
the secret image is stratified by a bit-plane
scrambling in accordance with the improved Arnold transform algorithms.The most significant bit plane is matched with the bit plane of the cover image and then obtained. This reduces the space of the secret sequence
and then in accordance with the masking effect of the human visual system
in the table of embedded depth
the information is embedded. The experimental results show that the algorithm is not ensuring the visual effect
the amount of information which can be embedded is further improved
