Motion vector steganography algorithm of sports training video integrating with artificial bee colony algorithm and human-centered AI for web applications

Abstract In multimedia correspondence, steganography schemes are commonly applied. To reduce storage capacity, multimedia files, including images, are always compressed. Most steganographic video schemes are, therefore, not compression tolerant. In the frame sequences, the video includes extra hidden space. Artificial intelligence (AI) creates a digital world of real-time information for athletes, sponsors, and broadcasters. AI is reshaping business, and although it has already produced a significant impact on other sectors, the sports industry is the newest and most receptive one. Human-centered AI for web applications has substantially influenced audience participation, strategic plan execution, and other aspects of the sports industry that have traditionally relied heavily on statistics. Thus, this study presents the motion vector steganography of sports training video integrating with the artificial bee colony algorithm (MVS-ABC). The motion vector stenography detects the hidden information from the motion vectors in the sports training video bitstreams. Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm optimizes the block assignment to inject a hidden message into a host video, in which the block assignment is considered a combinatorial optimization problem. The experimental analysis evaluates the data embedding performance using steganographic technology compared with existing embedding technologies, using the ABC algorithm compared with other genetic algorithms. The findings show that the proposed model can give the highest performance in terms of embedding capacity and the least error rate of video steganography compared with the existing models.
