I'm going to go with 'Chosen-Stego Attack' for this one. Victor seems to be purposefully trying to extract the hidden information, rather than just passively detecting it.

Reducing noise, sharpening, and softening the image? Sounds like Victor is really trying to enhance the image to get a better look at that hidden data. I'll guess 'Steg-Only Attack' for this one.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be the Steg-Only Attack based on the methods Victor mentioned.
