  edition = {Second},

  year = {2002},
  isbn = {1-55860-769-2},
  price = {USD 44.95},
  abstract = {Disappearing Cryptography, Second Edition describes how to take
    words, sounds, or images and hide them in digital data so that they look
    like other words, sounds, or images. When used properly, this powerful
    technique makes it almost impossible to trace the author or the recipient
    of a message. Conversations can be submerged in the flow of information
    through the Internet so that no one can know if a conversation exists at
    all.

    This full revision of the best-selling first edition describes a number of
    different techniques to hide information. These techniques include
    encryption (making data incomprehensible), steganography (embedding
    information into video, audio, or graphic files), watermarking (hiding
    data in the noise of image or sound files), mimicry ("dressing up" data
    and making it  appear to be other data), and others. This second edition
    also includes an expanded discussion on hiding information with
    spread-spectrum algorithms, shuffling tricks, and synthetic worlds. Each
    chapter is divided into sections, first providing an introduction and
    high-level summary for those who want to understand the concepts without
    wading through technical explanations, and then presenting greater detail
    for those who want to write their own programs.},

    on WordNet synonymy data and Internet statistics of stable word
    combinations (collocations). Given a text, we look for words or
    expressions in it for which WordNet provides synonyms, and substitute them
    with such synonyms only if the latter form valid collocations with the
    surrounding words according to the statistics gathered from Internet. We
    present two important applications of such synonymous paraphrasing: (1)
    style-checking and correction: automatic evaluation and computer-aided
    improvement of writing style with regard to various aspects (increasing
    vs. decreasing synonymous variation, conformistic vs. individualistic
    selection of synonyms, etc.) and (2) steganography: hiding of additional
    information in the text by special selection of synonyms. A basic
    interactive algorithm of style improvement is outlined and an example of
    its application to editing of newswire text fragment in English is traced.
    Algorithms of style evaluation and information hiding are also proposed.}

    machine to automatically determine whether it is interacting with another
    machine or a human. HIPs were recently proposed to fight abuse of web
    services, denial-of-service attacks and spam. We describe the construction
    of an HIP that relies solely on natural language and draws its security
    from the problem of word-sense ambiguity, i.e., the linguistic phenomenon
    that a word can have different meanings dependent on the context it is
    used in.}
