A New Approach to Image Sharing with High-Security Threshold Structure
Xiaojing Wang, Qizhao Yuan, Hongliang Cai, Jia-jia FANG · Journal of the ACM · 2014
Image sharing is an attractive research subject in computer image techniques and in the information security field. This article presents a novel scheme of image sharing with a ( t , n ) high-security threshold structure. The scheme can encode secret images into n shadow images in such a way that all the shadow images are in a perfect and ideal ( t , n ) threshold structure, while each shadow image has its own visual content assigned at random. The most common method to implement image sharing is based on interpolation polynomial over the field F p ={0, 1, 2,…, p -1} [Shamir 1979]. In this article, the authors present a new approach to image sharing and its computation based on algebraic-geometry code over the pixel value field GF(2 m ).
