Fingerprint image encryption based on chaos and nonlinear dynamic “X” model diffusion

Abstract

It is analyzed that the important part of the fingerprint image is concentrated in one part of the image, and the gray image is the part with useful information in the whole image. Therefore, this paper combines a new fingerprint image encryption algorithm proposed by combining two new one-dimensional chaotic systems, nonlinear functions, and rules with a dynamic "X" model. We propose two new one-dimensional chaotic systems, one is Sin-Cos chaotic system (SCCS) and the other is Cos-Cos chaotic system (CCCS). Firstly, the fingerprint image is binarized and the contour is extracted to get the area of the fingerprint in the image. Then, for the fingerprint area, a round of encryption is carried out by using nonlinear rules and 24 rules of the dynamic X model. Then the whole image is separated into several parts according to the fingerprint position, read into a sequence at one time, and the whole fingerprint image is scrambled and diffused synchronously by using nonlinear rules and functions. The entropy, NPCR, and UACI of the algorithm are very close to the ideal value, and the performance in time efficiency is passable. The algorithm is extremely secure in a large number of test performance analysis results.
