Facial image encryption based on spatiotemporal chaos in nonlinear coupling with dynamic coefficients and fractal scrambling matrix
摘要
To improve the diversity and security of image encryption, a novel Dynamic Cross-Nonlinear Coupled Mapping Lattice (DCNCML) for spatiotemporal chaos is proposed in this paper. The DCNCML system provides a better key stream and achieves a wider chaotic state. Specifically, the Kolmogorov-Sinai Entropy Breadth (KEB) increases from 4.01% to 74.69%, and the Kolmogorov-Sinai Entropy Density (KED) rises from 0.1108 to 0.2185. In the encryption algorithm, a Fractal Scrambling Matrix (FSM) with self-similarity is proposed. The encryption algorithm first separates the facial regions by face recognition. Finally, FSM is utilized for synchronous bidirectional diffusion to encrypt the facial region. Experimental results demonstrate that the algorithm exhibits excellent performance and efficiency.
