Pages : 637
Book Description
Advanced Computing, Networking and Informatics are three distinct and mutually exclusive disciplines of knowledge with no apparent sharing/overlap among them. However, their convergence is observed in many real world applications, including cyber-security, internet banking, healthcare, sensor networks, cognitive radio, pervasive computing amidst many others. This two volume proceedings explore the combined use of Advanced Computing and Informatics in the next generation wireless networks and security, signal and image processing, ontology and human-computer interfaces (HCI). The two volumes together include 132 scholarly articles, which have been accepted for presentation from over 550 submissions in the Third International Conference on Advanced Computing, Networking and Informatics, 2015, held in Bhubaneswar, India during June 23–25, 2015.

Three-Dimensional Model Analysis and Processing
Author: Faxin Yu
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642126510
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
With the increasing popularization of the Internet, together with the rapid development of 3D scanning technologies and modeling tools, 3D model databases have become more and more common in fields such as biology, chemistry, archaeology and geography. People can distribute their own 3D works over the Internet, search and download 3D model data, and also carry out electronic trade over the Internet. However, some serious issues are related to this as follows: (1) How to efficiently transmit and store huge 3D model data with limited bandwidth and storage capacity; (2) How to prevent 3D works from being pirated and tampered with; (3) How to search for the desired 3D models in huge multimedia databases. This book is devoted to partially solving the above issues. Compression is useful because it helps reduce the consumption of expensive resources, such as hard disk space and transmission bandwidth. On the downside, compressed data must be decompressed to be used, and this extra processing may be detrimental to some applications. 3D polygonal mesh (with geometry, color, normal vector and texture coordinate information), as a common surface representation, is now heavily used in various multimedia applications such as computer games, animations and simulation applications. To maintain a convincing level of realism, many applications require highly detailed mesh models. However, such complex models demand broad network bandwidth and much storage capacity to transmit and store. To address these problems, 3D mesh compression is essential for reducing the size of 3D model representation.

SOME INVESTIGATIONS ON STEGANOGRAPHY TECHNIQUES
Author: Dr. V. Nagaraj
Publisher: V. Nagaraj
ISBN: 9354264549
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
Steganography is the art of hiding and transmitting data through apparently innocuous carriers in an effort to conceal the existence of the secret data. The Least Significant Bit (LSB) steganography that replaces the least significant bits of the host medium is a widely used technique with low computational complexity and high insertion capacity. Although it has good perceptual transparency, it is vulnerable to steganalysis which is based on statistical analysis. Many other steganography algorithms have been developed such as Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Spread Spectrum Embedding. But the insertion capacities for all the above methods were not satisfied. Therefore, developing new steganography algorithms against statistical analysis seems to be the prime requirement in steganography. The LSB insertion method is the most common and easiest method for embedding messages in an image with high capacity. However, it is detectable by statistical analysis such as RS and Chisquare analysis. Hence, researchers are still in look out for steganography techniques with enhanced insertion capacity of secret data along with greater security and which can resist attacks. In this work, in order to enhance the embedding capacity of secret data four techniques for secret communication have been proposed. They are classified into two categories. In first category, cryptography is used along with steganography to enhance the security, while in second category only steganography is used. In the first category, two improved LSB substitution techniques have been proposed. The first technique is known as Zigzag Modulo Substitution Method in which embedding locations are Sequence based. The second technique is known as Random Modulo Substitution Method using Random Technique in LSB Steganography and user key based LSB substitution steganography for RGB images where in, RSA algorithm is used for encryption. The techniques under the first category are exclusively LSB array based. The first LSB array based technique embeds message bits into LSB arrays of cover image by using zigzag scanning. On the other hand the Random Modulo Substitution Method embeds secret data into the different locations of cover image by using pseudo random index generator. Moreover, both these LSB array based techniques use RSA algorithm to enhance security. Histogram and Statistical analysis performed on the stego image proved that the proposed techniques can effectively resist steganalysis. Comparison of the statistical parameters like Root Mean Square (RMS), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structural Similarity Index Matrix (SSIM) for the proposed techniques with cover image and stego image was carried out and analyzed. The Second category includes pixel value modification method and pixel value differencing method in which the embedding decision for a target pixel is taken by random technique. Data hiding by using pixel value modification with modulus function in color images guarantees that no pixel value will exceed the range 0 to 255 in stego image. In the existing PVD embedding methods, only one secret digit was embedded for two consecutive pixels, but the proposed method embeds one secret digit in only one pixel. Proposed method on color images gives more capacity and security than the PVD methods. It also provides better visual quality of stego image. Moreover, proposed method extracts the hidden secret message efficiently without using the range tables. In existing steganography algorithms like Pixel Value Differencing (PVD) methods, the secret data are embedded into the differences of adjacent pixels. This pair wise modification mechanism in cover image increases the histogram distortion.
