Visual cryptography for image processing and security: theory, methods, and applications (2nd ed.).

摘要

In this slim but overly packed volume, visual cryptography is reviewed along with its fundamental concepts in theory and practice. The area is absolutely critical at this time for counter-terrorism, corporate security, and in international relations; thus, the topic is of extraordinary interest in a wide variety of fields. One huge advantage of visual cryptography is that it is "a secret sharing technique which allows encryption of an image without requiring any complex computation or knowledge of cryptography." It should be obvious from the description that this area will be an issue of profound interest and debate as a result. "The design, construction, analysis, and application of visual cryptography schemes (VCSs) are discussed in detail," according to the publisher's description of the book.
