Thank you for the response. Perhaps I should have been more clear with my question. But I was referring to Steganographic images that have already been embedded with different embedding rates.
It is common to indicate the embedding rates in publications. I was just wondering if there was a publicly available dataset particularly for Steganography/Steganalysis.
I do not think such a steganogramme databases for benchmarking exists, for two reasons.
1. It is too easy to generate the steganogrammes that you need. Just run a batch job with the software and message distribution you are interested in.
2. There are too many variables, and thus too many distinct sets which would be demanded.
As long as we do not have any inkling about the distribution of steganogrammes in the field, it is impossible to synthesise a realistic data set. We simple lack the information about use cases to construct a canonical benchmark. Your data set has to be tailored to your research questions and assumptions.
Our group has just made available a stego dataset containing innocent and stego images. All the data are from mobile phones.There are over 800,000 images in the dataset. If you find our dataset useful, please reference the following paper:

Please contact me if you have questions, comments or suggestions. We would like this dataset to be useful to our community.
This is a database that our research team created from scratch, using purchased mobile phones and a camera app we wrote. It has stego images created from mobile stego apps that we reversed engineered to batch produce 565,000 stego images.
I am working in developing the blind steganalysis technques for images using matlab coding . I want to implement my detection coding on your database. If i have any querries kindly help.

Hi, i am a PhD student, as i am working in the same field (steganograpphy) i can tell you that we do have a specific database that we use which is called "BOSS Base" (Break our steganographic system).
