Objectives: In this study, features of the pixel and Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) are combined to hide the secret image in the pixels of an image. Method/Statistical Analysis: Features such as texture and edge sensitivity were calculated and combined with the FIS for hiding the information in a carrier image. Findings: Results reveal that this system hides the secret information more effectively. The results of the experiment reveal an accurate information hiding rate of PSNR 53.6592. Application/Improvements: Future enhancements in this work are to propose an efficient algorithm to hide images of group in a single image.
