Generative Steganography Network. (arXiv:2207.13867v3 [cs.CV] UPDATED)

Steganography usually modifies cover media to embed secret data. A new
steganographic approach called generative steganography (GS) has emerged
recently, in which stego images (images containing secret data) are generated
from secret data directly without cover media. However, existing GS schemes are
often criticized for their poor performances. In this paper, we propose an
advanced generative steganography network (GSN) that can generate realistic
stego images without using cover images. We firstly introduce the mutual
information mechanism in GS, which helps …
