Image steganography is a technique of embedding secret message into a digital image to securely send the information. In contrast, steganalysis focuses on detecting the presence of secret messages hidden by steganography. The modern approach in steganalysis is based on supervised learning where the training set must include the steganographic and natural image features. But if a new method of steganography is proposed, and the detector still trained on existing methods will generally lead to the serious detection accuracy drop due to the mismatch between training and detecting steganographic method. In this paper, we just attempt to process unsupervised learning problem and propose a detection model called self-learning ensemble discriminant clustering (SEDC), which aims at taking full advantage of the statistical property of the natural and testing images to estimate the optimal projection vector. This method can adaptively select the most discriminative subspace and then use K-means clustering to generate the ultimate class labels. Experimental results on J-UNIWARD and nsF5 steganographic methods with three feature extraction methods such as CC-JRM, DCTR, GFR show that the proposed scheme can effectively classification better than blind speculation.
