-For instance if the rate between the size of message and the size of the host is
-1/4, each number in $\{81, 95, 107, 121\}$ is translated into a binary number

the average size of the message that can be embedded is 16,445 bits.

is the most secure steganographic tool, as far as we know.

our approach obtains similar results to HUGO ones.

However due to its
