An Analysis of the Contribution of Genetic Algorithm to the Field of Steganography

Abstract
The use of soft computing techniques in the field of information hiding especially steganography is increasingly becoming popular. Soft Computing paradigms like Fuzzy Logic, Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithm have contributed greatly to the enhancement of steganographic systems. This paper analyzes about genetic algorithm based steganography with respect to the latest researches done in enhancing the security of steganographic systems. Keywords - Steganography, MSE, PSNR, Genetic Algorithm (GA), Least Significant Bit (LSB), Integer Wavelet Transform (IWT).
