Let us compare the STABYLO approach with other edge based steganography
schemes with respect to the image quality.

+First of all, wPSNR and PSNR of the Edge Adaptive
scheme detailed in~\cite{Luo:2010:EAI:1824719.1824720} are lower than ours.
Next both the approaches~\cite{DBLP:journals/eswa/ChenCL10,Chang20101286}
focus on increasing the payload while the PSNR is acceptable, but do not

This well studied steganographic approach never decreases (resp. increases)
pixel with even value (resp. odd value) and may break structural symmetry.
These structural modification can be detected by statistical approaches
We argue that modifying edge pixels is an acceptable compromise.
Edges form the outline of an object: they are the boundary between overlapping objects or between an object
and the background. A small modification of pixel value in the stego image should not be harmful to the image quality:
-in cover image, edge pixels already break its continuity and thus already contains large variation with neighbouring
+in cover image, edge pixels already break its continuity and thus already contain large variation with neighbouring
pixels. In other words, minor changes in regular area are more dramatic than larger modifications in edge ones.
Our proposal is thus to embed message bits into edge shapes while preserving other smooth regions.
The Syndrome-Trellis Codes (STC)
presented by Filler et al. in~\cite{DBLP:conf/mediaforensics/FillerJF10}
is a practical solution to this complexity. Thanks to this contribution,
