Abstract
AbstractIn this paper, we proposed an image sharing method adopting (t, n) threshold scheme. The secret image goes through Vector Quantization (VQ) scheme and permutes the locations of indices to obtain permuted indexed secret image. We select t indices to form a (t-1)-degree polynomial by taking t indices as its coefficients. Then, the values of blocks’ indices in cover image are fed into the (t-1)-degree polynomial to get the output values. After embedding the output values back to the pixels in block, we can obtain meaningful shadow images. Any t out of n shadow images can reconstruct the permuted indexed secret image. By inversing permutation and decoding VQ indices, we can finally reconstruct the secret image. Experimental results show that our method can get high image quality for the resultant shadow images and reconstruct secret images as well.KeywordsImage sharing(t and n) threshold schemevector quantization
