S 11 + S 21 or S 11+ S 12 or
1. all 4 sub pixels are black
2. three black and one white

The analysis of "contrast" and "security" conditions for two-layer (4, 4) scheme
Our hierarchical VSS scheme is a probabilistic scheme. The original white pixel in the stacked picture(S 11 + S 12 + S 21 + S 22) may include four all black sub pixels with probability 50%. This is minor due to the probability. For example, two adjacent white original pixels will have all black sub pixel with probability 1/4, three adjacent white original pixels will have all black sub pixel with probability 1/8, ¡K, and so on.
