+We thus propose to take advantage of this optimized embedding, provided they are not too time consuming.
+In the latter, an hybrid edge detector is presented followed by an ad hoc
+embedding.
+The Edge detection is computed by combining fuz\-zy logic~\cite{Tyan1993}
+and Canny~\cite{Canny:1986:CAE:11274.11275} approaches.
+The goal of this combination
+is to enlarge the set of modified bits to increase the payload of the data hiding scheme.
+
+
+One can notice that all the previously referenced
+sche\-mes~\cite{Luo:2010:EAI:1824719.1824720,DBLP:journals/eswa/ChenCL10,DBLP:conf/ih/PevnyFB10}
+produce stego contents
+by only considering the payload, not the type of image signal: the higher the payload is,
+the better the approach is said to be.
+For instance, studied payloads range from 0.04 to 0.4 modified bits per pixel.
+Contrarily, we argue that some images should not be taken
+as a cover because of the nature of their signals.
+Consider for instance a uniformly black image: a very tiny modification of its
+pixels can be easily detected.
+Practically speaking, if Alice would send
+a hidden message to Bob, she would never consider
+such kind of image and a high embedding rate.
+The approach we propose here is thus to provide a small complexity
+self adaptive algorithm
+with an acceptable payload, which
+depends on the cover signal.
+The payload is further said to
+ be acceptable if it allows to embed a sufficiently
+long message in the cover signal.
+Practically speaking, our approach is efficient enough for
+payloads close to 0.06 bit per pixel which allows to embed
+messages of length larger than 15,728 bits in an
+image of size $512\times 512$ pixels.
+
+% Message extraction is achieved by computing the same
+% edge detection pixels set for the cover and the stego image.
+% The edge detection algorithm is thus not applied on all the bits of the image,
+% but to exclude the LSBs which are modified.
+
+Finally, even if the steganalysis discipline
+ has known great innovations these last years, it is currently impossible to prove rigorously
+that a given hidden message cannot be recovered by an attacker.
+This is why we add to our scheme a reasonable
+message encryption stage, to be certain that,
+even in the worst case scenario, the attacker
+will not be able to obtain the original message content.
+Doing so makes our steganographic protocol, to a certain extend, an asymmetric one.
+
+To sum up, well-studied and experimented
+techniques of signal processing (adaptive edges detection),
+coding theory (syndrome-trellis codes), and cryptography
+(Blum-Goldwas\-ser encryption protocol) are combined in this research work.
+The objective is to compute an efficient steganographic
+sche\-me, whose principal characteristic is to take into
+consideration the cover image and to be compatible with small computation resources.
+
+The remainder of this document is organized as follows.
+Section~\ref{sec:ourapproach} presents the details of the proposed steganographic scheme and applies it on a running example. Among its technical description,
+its adaptive aspect is emphasized.
+Section~\ref{sub:complexity} presents the overall complexity of our approach
+and compares it to HUGO, WOW, and UNIWARD.
+Section~\ref{sec:experiments} shows experiments on image quality, steganalysis evaluation, and compares them to the state of the art steganographic schemes.
+Finally, concluding notes and future work are given in Section~\ref{sec:concl}.
