Abstract
Quantization index modulation (QIM) based VoIP steganography can conceal secret information in VoIP streams. Malicious users could use this technology to conduct illegal activities, threatening network and public security. Hence, practical steganalysis models that could detect QIM-based VoIP steganography are urged to be developed. In recent years, deep learning (DL) models have been investigated for this task, and exciting outcomes have been achieved. However, existing models are far from practical. Two major challenges are required to be addressed. First, there is still significant room for improvement in detection accuracy. Second, studies that balance the detection accuracy and response time are still insufficient. In this context, our main research topic fits in the QIM-based VoIP steganalysis theme, which aims to detect QIM-based steganography in VoIP streams in a fast and accurate manner.
