Step 1: Select secret image S and target image T. If the size of the target image T is different from that of the secret image S, change the size of T to be identical to that of S Step 2: Convert target image into HSV image by using the equation (1) to form new target image T Step 3: For performing color conversion, first means and of S and T are find out and then find standard deviation quotient from equation (3.5) for each color channel Step 4: Limit mean value by eight bits and standard
