Quantum Multi-Image Encryption Based on Iteration Arnold Transform with Parameters and Image Correlation Decomposition

摘要

A novel quantum multi-image encryption algorithm based on iteration Arnold transform with parameters and image correlation decomposition is proposed, and a quantum realization of the iteration Arnold transform with parameters is designed. The corresponding low frequency images are obtained by performing 2-D discrete wavelet transform on each image respectively, and then the corresponding low frequency images are spliced randomly to one image. The new image is scrambled by the iteration Arnold transform with parameters, and the gray-level information of the scrambled image is encoded by quantum image correlation decomposition. For the encryption algorithm, the keys are iterative times, added parameters, classical binary and orthonormal basis states. The key space, the security and the computational complexity are analyzed, and all of the analyses show that the proposed encryption algorithm could encrypt multiple images simultaneously with lower computational complexity compared with its classical counterparts.
