摘要

We introduce R-SIT, a novel and interpretable architecture for spatial-domain image steganalysis. The framework incorporates a preprocessing stage based on Spatial Rich Model (SRM) filters to amplify steganographic noise, followed by hierarchical Swin Transformer blocks enhanced with Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) modules. This design achieves a synergy between local detail extraction, global contextual modeling, and channel-wise attention, thereby strengthening the model’s discriminative capacity. We evaluate R-SIT on BOSSBase 1.01 across five widely used steganographic algorithms (WOW, S-UNIWARD, HILL, HUGO, MiPOD). Notably, at 0.4 bpp it achieves 91.05and 87.83visualizations that highlight image regions most influential to classification. These findings underscore the advantages of combining hierarchical Transformers with channel attention and intrinsic explainability mechanisms, offering a robust and transparent solution for steganalysis in the spatial domain.
