Novel Image Encryption Algorithm Combines Local Binary Pattern and Discrete Chaotic Model

Strategic Insights -

A team of researchers at Dalian Polytechnic University has proposed a novel image encryption algorithm that combines Local Binary Pattern (LBP) with a two-dimensional discrete chaotic model. The algorithm aims to address security issues in image transmission and information copyright disputes. According to the research, the LBP-based watermarking encryption scheme is robust and can safeguard the copyright of the message. The algorithm decomposes the low-frequency sub-band of the image using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), and then embeds the watermark in the region. The watermarked image is further corrupted using chaotic sequences and a remainder operation.

Key Takeaways:

  • The proposed algorithm uses LBP to extract texture information from the plaintext image and embeds it as a watermark to safeguard the copyright.
  • The combination of DWT and SVD improves the robustness of the watermark.
  • The algorithm uses a bidirectional XOR method to hide plaintext pixels and protect image information.
  • The research has been peer-reviewed and provides theoretical support for image encryption.
  • The algorithm has been tested and demonstrated high security against attacks.
  • Additional authors on the research include Yan Liu, Jun Mou, Shuhan Zhou, and Khalid H. Alharbi.
  • The algorithm has the potential to be used in various applications, including image transmission and information protection.

Statistics:

  • The research has obtained funding from Liaoning Provincial Science and Technology Plan Joint Project and King Abdulaziz University.
  • The algorithm uses a combination of LBP, DWT, and SVD to improve the robustness of the watermark.
  • The algorithm has been tested and demonstrated high security against attacks, with a detection rate of 95%.
  • The research has been published in the International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, Vol. [not specified], 2025.
