Abstract
Operational steganalysis contends with a major problem referred to as the cover-source mismatch (CSM), which is essentially a difference in distribution caused by different parameters and settings over training and test data. Despite it being of fundamental importance in an operational context, the CSM problem is often overlooked in the literature. With the goal to increase the visibility of this problem and attract the interest of the community, the present paper proposes a systematic review of the literature. It summarizes gathered knowledge and major open questions over the last 20 years of active research on CSM: terminology, methods of measurement, known causes, and mitigation strategies. Over 100 papers exploring, mitigating, assessing, or discussing steganalysis under train-test mismatch were collected by sampling scholar databases, and tracing references, cited and generated. For image steganalysis, the literature provided enough evidence to quantify the impact of causes, and the effectiveness of mitigation strategies.
期刊介绍：
The overall goal of the EURASIP Journal on Information Security, sponsored by the European Association for Signal Processing (EURASIP), is to bring together researchers and practitioners dealing with the general field of information security, with a particular emphasis on the use of signal processing tools in adversarial environments. As such, it addresses all works whereby security is achieved through a combination of techniques from cryptography, computer security, machine learning and multimedia signal processing. Application domains lie, for example, in secure storage, retrieval and tracking of multimedia data, secure outsourcing of computations, forgery detection of multimedia data, or secure use of biometrics. The journal also welcomes survey papers that give the reader a gentle introduction to one of the topics covered as well as papers that report large-scale experimental evaluations of existing techniques. Pure cryptographic papers are outside the scope of the journal. Topics relevant to the journal include, but are not limited to: • Multimedia security primitives (such digital watermarking, perceptual hashing, multimedia authentictaion) • Steganography and Steganalysis • Fingerprinting and traitor tracing • Joint signal processing and encryption, signal processing in the encrypted domain, applied cryptography • Biometrics (fusion, multimodal biometrics, protocols, security issues) • Digital forensics • Multimedia signal processing approaches tailored towards adversarial environments • Machine learning in adversarial environments • Digital Rights Management • Network security (such as physical layer security, intrusion detection) • Hardware security, Physical Unclonable Functions • Privacy-Enhancing Technologies for multimedia data • Private data analysis, security in outsourced computations, cloud privacy
