Abstract This project discusses a simple and secure
steganographic system involves reversible texture synthesis and
presents a design and implementation of weaving a the texture
synthesis process into steganography to conceal the secret
message. Texture synthesis is the method of building a large
digital image from a small digital sample image by taking
advantage of its structural content. A typical steganographic
application includes covert communication between two parties
whose presence is anonymous to a probable attacker and whose
success depends on detecting the existence of this
communication. We implement how to secure the
communication over the medium. We can implement patch based
algorithm that may conceal source texture image and embeds
secret message through the process of texture synthesis.

I. INTRODUCTION
A steganography can be defined as the art and science of
indistinguishable communication. The word steganography
derives from the Greek steganos, implication covered or
secret, and graphy, implication writing or drawing.
Therefore, steganography literally means that covered
writing. Information and communication technology has
grown rapidly. Internet is the most general communication
standard nowadays. But message transmission over the
internet is facing some difficulties such as files security,
copyright control etc. So we need secret communication
methods. Steganography place an important role in
information security. The origin of steganography is traced
back to ancient civilization. The oldenEgyptians
communicated covertly using the hieroglyphic language, a
sequence of symbols representative a message. The message
appearances as if it is a sketch of a picture although it may
hold a hidden message.

II. LITERATURE SURVEY
Literature survey is the most significant step in software
improvement process. Before developing the tool it is
necessary to define the time factor economy and company
power. Once these things are satisfied, then the next step is
to define which operating system and semantic can be used
for developing the tool. Once the programmers start
building the tool the programmer wanta lot of external
support. This support can be achieved from senior
programmers, from book or from websites. Before
constructing the system the above thoughts are taken into
account for developing the proposed system. IN
PAPER[1]A.E.Mustafa et al., presents a new Steganography
technique based on the spatial domain for encoding
additional information in an picture by making small
alterations to its pixels. The proposed technique
concentrations on one specific popular technique, Least
Significant Bit (LSB) Embedding. In place of using the
LSB-1 of the cover for embedding the message, LSB-2 has
been used to increase the robustness. In paper [2] M.Zamani
et al.,examines the opportunity of usage of Genetic
Algorithms (GA) for data hiding in digital images. Two
spatial domain data hiding approaches are planned where
GA is used distinctly for (i) improvement in discovery and
(ii) optimum imperceptibility of secreted data in digital
pictures respectively. In paper [3]G.S.Sarvanthi et al.,
discussed a new technique of information hiding in digital
picture in spatial domain. In this technique we use Plane Bit
Substitution Method (PBSM) technique in which
Communication bits are embedded into the pixel value(s) of
an image.In paper [4] E.Levina et al., presents a
nonparametric algorithm for bootstrapping a stationary
unplanned ground and shows certain consistency
possessions of the algorithm for the case of mixing
unplanned grounds. In paper [5] Michael F.Cohen et al.,
discusses the usage of Wang Tiles for picture and texture
generation as initially accessible and creating large regions
of nonperiodic texture, point circulations or geometry can
be professionally done at runtime by assembling a tiling of
the plane using a minor set of Wang tiles. The technique
contains filling a minor set of Wang Tiles with texture,
Poisson point deliveries or geometry and non-periodically
roofing the horizontal to stochastically produce a continuous
representation.In paper [6] Hirofumi Otori et al., suggests a
new kind of image coding technique using texture image
synthesis. The textured code delivers the conservative bar
code with an aesthetic demand and is used for tagging data
onto actual texture things, which can form a basis for
abundant mobile data communications.
We have now to produce an index table and
composition image, and have pasted basis patches straight
into the workbench. We will embed our secret message
through the message oriented texture synthesis to produce
the final stego synthetic.

III. PREVIOUS WORK

The existing work in the steganography using pixel

based technique produce the synthesized image pixel by
pixel and practices spatial neighborhood evaluations to
select the most comparable pixel in a model texture as the
production pixel. Since each production pixel is regulated
by the already synthesized pixels, an any incorrectly
synthesized pixels during the procedureinspiration the rest Fig 3: Message oriented texture synthesis process

synthesis. This allows us to extract the secret message and removing and authenticating the secret message hidden in
source texture from a stego synthetic texture. The main aim the stego synthetic texture. Given the secret key believed in
of patch based methods to embed a secret message during the receiver side, the same index table as the embedding

be recovered in a message extracting procedure. It provides
a secure data embedding efficiency because the size of the
cover image is vary depends upon the secret message .this
will make to store large amount of information. the stego
analytic algorithm is used to extract the secret message from
source texture. The distortion of image is very low in our
opposed system. Reducing distortion is the crucial issue in
existing method this will overcome by our system.
Identification of LSB location is not necessary for
embedding data the data embedding performed based on Fig 4: Message extraction andauthentication process

IV. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS

Our algorithm covers the source texture image and

embeds secret message concluded the process of texture
synthesis. This permits us to extract the secret message and
source texture from a stego synthetic texture using message
extraction and authentication procedure.

4.1 Message embedding process:

4.1.1 Patch composition process:
The second procedure of our algorithm is to paste the
source patches into a workbench to create a composition
image. First we found a blank image as our workbench
where the dimension of the workbench is equivalent to the
synthetic texture. By mentioning to the source patch IDs
deposited in the index table, we then paste the basis patches
into the workbench.

VI. CONCLUSION
Given an original source texture,our system can
produce a huge stego synthetic texture covering secret
messages. To the best of our information, we are the first
that can exquisitely weave the steganography into a
predictable patch based texture synthesis. Our technique is
novel and delivers reversibility to retrive the innovative
source texture from the stego synthetic texture,
creationimaginable a second round of texture synthesis if
desired. The accessible algorithm is protected and strong
against an RS steganalysis attack. We belive our proposed
arrangementproposals substantial benefits and delivers an
occasionto spread steganography application.
