Color image encryption using spatial bit-level permutation and high-dimension chaotic system

This paper proposes a bit-level permutation and high-dimension chaotic map to encrypt color image. Firstly, convert the plain color image of size (M × N) into a grayscale image of size (M × 3N), then transform it into a binary matrix, and permute the matrix at bit-level by the scrambling mapping generated by piecewise linear chaotic map (PWLCM). Secondly, use Chen system to confuse and diffuse the red, green and blue components simultaneously. Experiment results and security analysis not only show that the scheme can achieve good encryption result, but also that the key space is large enough to resist against common attack.     

A Bit Shift Image Encryption Algorithm Based on Double Chaotic Systems

A chaotic system refers to a deterministic system with seemingly random irregular motion, and its behavior is uncertain, unrepeatable, and unpredictable. In recent years, researchers have proposed various image encryption schemes based on a single low-dimensional or high-dimensional chaotic system, but many algorithms have problems such as low security. Therefore, designing a good chaotic system and encryption scheme is very important for encryption algorithms. This paper constructs a new double chaotic system based on tent mapping and logistic mapping. In order to verify the practicability and feasibility of the new chaotic system, a displacement image encryption algorithm based on the new chaotic system was subsequently proposed. This paper proposes a displacement image encryption algorithm based on the new chaotic system. The algorithm uses an improved new nonlinear feedback function to generate two random sequences, one of which is used to generate the index sequence, the other is used to generate the encryption matrix, and the index sequence is used to control the generation of the encryption matrix required for encryption. Then, the encryption matrix and the scrambling matrix are XORed to obtain the first encryption image. Finally, a bit-shift encryption method is adopted to prevent the harm caused by key leakage and to improve the security of the algorithm. Numerical experiments show that the key space of the algorithm is not only large, but also the key sensitivity is relatively high, and it has good resistance to various attacks. The analysis shows that this algorithm has certain competitive advantages compared with other encryption algorithms.     

Single-channel color image encryption using phase retrieve algorithm in fractional Fourier domain

A single-channel color image encryption is proposed based on a phase retrieve algorithm and a two-coupled logistic map. Firstly, a gray scale image is constituted with three channels of the color image, and then permuted by a sequence of chaotic pairs generated by the two-coupled logistic map. Secondly, the permutation image is decomposed into three new components, where each component is encoded into a phase-only function in the fractional Fourier domain with a phase retrieve algorithm that is proposed based on the iterative fractional Fourier transform. Finally, an interim image is formed by the combination of these phase-only functions and encrypted into the final gray scale ciphertext with stationary white noise distribution by using chaotic diffusion, which has camouflage property to some extent. In the process of encryption and decryption, chaotic permutation and diffusion makes the resultant image nonlinear and disorder both in spatial domain and frequency domain, and the proposed phase iterative algorithm has faster convergent speed. Additionally, the encryption scheme enlarges the key space of the cryptosystem. Simulation results and security analysis verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this method.

Research on Color Image Encryption Algorithm Based on Bit-Plane and Chen Chaotic System

In response to the problems of high complexity and the large amount of operations of existing color image encryption algorithms, a low-complexity, low-operation color image encryption algorithm based on a combination of bit-plane and chaotic systems is proposed that is interrelated with plaintext information. Firstly, three channels of an RGB image are extracted, and the gray value of each pixel channel can be expressed by an eight-bit binary number. The higher- and lower-four bits of the binary gray value of each pixel are exchanged, and the position of each four-bit binary number is scrambled by a logistic chaotic sequence, and all the four-bit binary numbers are converted into hexadecimal numbers to reduce the computational complexity. Next, the position of the transformed image is scrambled by a logistic chaotic sequence. Then, the Chen chaos sequence is used to permute the gray pixel values of the permuted image. Finally, the gray value of the encrypted image is converted into a decimal number to form a single-channel encrypted image, and the three-channel encrypted image is synthesized into an encrypted color image. Through MATLAB simulation experiments, a security analysis of encryption effects in terms of a histogram, correlation, a differential attack, and information entropy is performed. The results show that the algorithm has a better encryption effect and is resistant to differential attacks.     

Encryption and decryption of images with chaotic map lattices

We propose a secure algorithm for direct encryption and decryption of digital images with chaotic map lattices. The basic idea is to convert, pixel by pixel, the image color to chaotic logistic maps one-way coupled by initial conditions. After small numbers of iterations and cycles, the image becomes indistinguishable due to inherent properties of chaotic systems. Since the maps are coupled, the image can be completely recovered by the decryption algorithm if map parameters, number of iterations, number of cycles, and the image size are exactly known.     

Image Encryption Scheme Based on Mixed Chaotic Bernoulli Measurement Matrix Block Compressive Sensing

Many image encryption schemes based on compressive sensing have poor reconstructed image quality when the compression ratio is low, as well as difficulty in hardware implementation. To address these problems, we propose an image encryption algorithm based on the mixed chaotic Bernoulli measurement matrix block compressive sensing. A new chaotic measurement matrix was designed using the Chebyshev map and logistic map; the image was compressed in blocks to obtain the measurement values. Still, using the Chebyshev map and logistic map to generate encrypted sequences, the measurement values were encrypted by no repetitive scrambling as well as a two-way diffusion algorithm based on GF(257) for the measurement value matrix. The security of the encryption system was further improved by generating the Secure Hash Algorithm-256 of the original image to calculate the initial values of the chaotic mappings for the encryption process. The scheme uses two one-dimensional maps and is easier to implement in hardware. Simulation and performance analysis showed that the proposed image compression–encryption scheme can improve the peak signal-to-noise ratio of the reconstructed image with a low compression ratio and has good encryption against various attacks.

A novel chaos-based image encryption algorithm using DNA sequence operations

An image encryption algorithm based on chaotic system and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequence operations is proposed in this paper. First, the plain image is encoded into a DNA matrix, and then a new wave-based permutation scheme is performed on it. The chaotic sequences produced by 2D Logistic chaotic map are employed for row circular permutation (RCP) and column circular permutation (CCP). Initial values and parameters of the chaotic system are calculated by the SHA 256 hash of the plain image and the given values. Then, a row-by-row image diffusion method at DNA level is applied. A key matrix generated from the chaotic map is used to fuse the confused DNA matrix; also the initial values and system parameters of the chaotic system are renewed by the hamming distance of the plain image. Finally, after decoding the diffused DNA matrix, we obtain the cipher image. The DNA encoding/decoding rules of the plain image and the key matrix are determined by the plain image. Experimental results and security analyses both confirm that the proposed algorithm has not only an excellent encryption result but also resists various typical attacks.

A robust and secure chaotic standard map based pseudorandom permutation-substitution scheme for image encryption

A novel and robust chaos-based pseudorandom permutation-substitution scheme for image encryption is proposed. It is a loss-less symmetric block cipher and specifically designed for the color images but may also be used for the gray scale images. A secret key of 161-bit, comprising of the initial conditions and system parameter of the chaotic map (the standard map), number of iterations and number of rounds, is used in the algorithm. The whole encryption process is the sequential execution of a preliminary permutation and a fix number of rounds (as specified in the secret key) of substitution and main permutation of the 2D matrix obtained from the 3D image matrix. To increase the speed of encryption all three processes: preliminary permutation, substitution and main permutation are done row-by-row and column-by-column instead of pixel-by-pixel. All the permutation processes are made dependent on the input image matrix and controlled through the pseudo random number sequences (PRNS) generated from the discretization of chaotic standard map which result in both key sensitivity and plaintext sensitivity. However each substitution process is initiated with the initial vectors (different for rows and columns) generated using the secret key and chaotic standard map and then the properties of rows and column pixels of input matrix are mixed with the PRNS generated from the standard map. The security and performance analysis of the proposed image encryption has been performed using the histograms, correlation coefficients, information entropy, key sensitivity analysis, differential analysis, key space analysis, encryption/decryption rate analysis etc. Results suggest that the proposed image encryption technique is robust and secure and can be used for the secure image and video communication applications.     

Color component 3D Arnold transform for polychromatic pattern recognition

We propose a novel method for polychromatic pattern recognition based on color component 3D Arnold transform. Three color components (for example RGB) are first transformed into three chaotic images by the use of 3D Arnold transform. And then any one of the chaotic images is chosen as the input image of the JTC to be recognized. As a result, strong color discrimination capability is achieved and common color images as well as some special color images can be recognized, while still preserving compact system and easier analysis of the output. Numerical results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Single Channel Quantum Color Image Encryption Algorithm Based on HSI Model and Quantum Fourier Transform

In order to obtain high-quality color images, it is important to keep the hue component unchanged while emphasize the intensity or saturation component. As a public color model, Hue-Saturation Intensity (HSI) model is commonly used in image processing. A new single channel quantum color image encryption algorithm based on HSI model and quantum Fourier transform (QFT) is investigated, where the color components of the original color image are converted to HSI and the logistic map is employed to diffuse the relationship of pixels in color components. Subsequently, quantum Fourier transform is exploited to fulfill the encryption. The cipher-text is a combination of a gray image and a phase matrix. Simulations and theoretical analyses demonstrate that the proposed single channel quantum color image encryption scheme based on the HSI model and quantum Fourier transform is secure and effective.

Plaintext-Related Dynamic Key Chaotic Image Encryption Algorithm

To address the problems of the high complexity and low security of the existing image encryption algorithms, this paper proposes a dynamic key chaotic image encryption algorithm with low complexity and high security associated with plaintext. Firstly, the RGB components of the color image are read, and the RGB components are normalized to obtain the key that is closely related to the plaintext, and then the Arnold transform is used to stretch and fold the RGB components of the color image to change the position of the pixel points in space, so as to destroy the correlation between the adjacent pixel points of the image. Next, the generated sequences are independently encrypted with the Arnold-transformed RGB matrix. Finally, the three encrypted images are combined to obtain the final encrypted image. Since the key acquisition of this encryption algorithm is related to the plaintext, it is possible to achieve one key per image, so the key acquisition is dynamic. This encryption algorithm introduces chaotic mapping, so that the key space size is 10180. The key acquisition is closely related to the plaintext, which makes the ciphertext more random and resistant to differential attacks, and ensures that the ciphertext is more secure after encryption. The experiments show that the algorithm can encrypt the image effectively and can resist attack on the encrypted image.     

Synchronously scrambled diffuse image encryption method based on a new cosine chaotic map

We present a new cosine chaotic mapping proved by chaos theory test and analysis such that the system has good cryptography properties, wide chaos range, simple structure, and good sensitivity to initial value, and the mapping can meet the needs of chaotic image encryption. Based on the cosine chaotic system, we propose a new encryption method. First, according to the cyclic characteristics of the mapping, the cyclic information wave is simulated. Second, the quasi-Doppler effect is used to synchronously scramble and diffuse the image to obfuscate the original pixel. Finally, the XOR diffusion of image pixels is carried out by information wave to further enhance the encryption effect. Simulation experiment and security analysis show that the algorithm has good security, can resist the common attack mode, and has good efficiency.     

Quantum Image Encryption Based on Henon Mapping

Quantum image processing has great significance as a branch of quantum computing. This paper gives a quantum image encryption based on Henon mapping, which breaks away from the restriction of classical computers and does the work in quantum computers end to end, including the generation of the chaos sequence, the encryption and the decryption. The algorithm is based on the GQIR quantum image representation model and the two-dimensional Henon chaotic mapping. However, the decimal sequence generated by Henon mapping can not be directly applied to quantum computers. Hence, we reform the Henon mapping by binary shift. The quantum image is encrypted by being XORed with the quantum Henon mapping. Simulation experiments indicate that the encrypted image has good radomness and the pixel values are evenly distributed. Since the chaotic sequence itself is suitable for image encryption, coupled with its own quantum confidentiality, the encryption method of this paper is safe, convenient and reliable.
