Abstract

In this paper, a data mining technique, Fuzzy C Means Clustering (FCM) based data hiding algorithm (FCM-DH) is used to divide pixels into classes or clusters from the encrypted image. Clustering of pixels in an encrypted image is considered in the proposed approach for creating a space to accommodate data. Before applying the FCM-DH, a content owner prepares a cover image by encrypting the pixels of an image with encryption key. Then, group the pixels to compress the least significant bits of the encrypted image using a proposed FCM-DH technique with data-hiding key and form a partition matrix to create space to accommodate data. With a received cover image containing hidden data, if the receiver can extract the data with data-hiding key or decrypt the cover image with encryption key to obtain original image independently. If the receiver applying both the data-hiding key and the encryption key, then extract the data and recover the original image without any error by exploiting the spatial correlation in natural image
