Rich model (SRM)

Definition

A high-dimensional feature set for steganalysis constructed from joint statistics of pixel prediction residuals computed with many different filter kernels and quantisation steps. The Spatial Rich Model (SRM) produces around 34,671 features and is trained with an ensemble classifier.
