| With the rapid growth of information industries and the popularized electronic products, digital image has permeated into a variety of professions. More image date are being transported and exchanged. Therefore, the security of secret digital images is getting more attention day by day. Nowadays, there have been a lot of encryption schemes for images. Also, there are many corresponding parameters which are used to evaluate the image encryption algorithms. This dissertation aims to design a simple image encryption and decryption software, whose algorithm is based on the fractional Merlin transform.After simple analysis and comparison of several image encryption algorithms. the image encryption algorithm based on fractional Merlin transform is related. On the basis of the analysis on software demands, the image encryption algorithm based on fractional Merlin transform is reproduced as the form of encryption and decryption software. The software designed meets the basic requirements of image encryption. decryption and performance analyses. |
