Convolutional steganalysis network

Definition

A deep neural network trained end-to-end to classify cover versus stego images. Architectures such as XuNet, SRNet, and Yedroudj-Net use learned high-pass filter preprocessing layers followed by convolutional feature extraction, avoiding manual feature engineering.
