+The edge detection returns 18,641 and 18,455 pixels when $b$ is
+respectively 7 and 6. These edges are represented in Figure~\ref{fig:edge}.
+When $b$ is 7, it remains one bit per pixel to build the cover vector.
+This configuration leads to a cover vector of size 18,641 if b is 7
+and 36,910 if $b$ is 6.

+The STC algorithm is optimized when the rate between message length and
+cover vector length is lower than 1/2.
+So, only 9,320 bits are available for embedding
+in the configuration where $b$ is 7.
+
+When $b$ is 6, we could have considered 18,455 bits for the message.
+However, first experiments have shown that modifying this number of bits is too
+easily detectable.
+So, we choose to modify the same amount of bits (9,320) and keep STC optimizing
+which bits to change among the 36,910 ones.
+
+In the two cases, about the third part of the poem is hidden into the cover.
+Results with \emph{adaptive+STC} strategy are presented in
+Fig.~\ref{fig:lenastego}.

+Finally, differences between the original cover and the stego images
+are presented in Fig.~\ref{fig:lenadiff}. For each pair of pixel $X_{ij}$ and $Y_{ij}$ ($X$ and $Y$ being the cover and the stego content respectively),
+the pixel value $V_{ij}$ of the difference is defined with the following map
+$$
+V_{ij}= \left\{
+\begin{array}{rcl}
+0 & \textrm{if} & X_{ij} = Y_{ij} \\
+75 & \textrm{if} & \vert X_{ij} - Y_{ij} \vert = 1 \\
+150 & \textrm{if} & \vert X_{ij} - Y_{ij} \vert = 2 \\
+225 & \textrm{if} & \vert X_{ij} - Y_{ij} \vert = 3
+\end{array}
+\right..
+$$
+This function allows to emphasize differences between contents.
