Quantum image encryption based on Lorenz hyper-chaotic system

Abstract

According to the higher security of higher-dimensional chaotic system, a new scheme of quantum image encryption and decryption based on Lorenz hyper-chaotic system is proposed. The encryption process is mainly divided into two parts: the location information scrambling process and the color information replacement process. In the location information scrambling process, the pseudo-random sequence obtained by the Lorenz hyper-chaotic system is first sorted to obtain the corresponding position index sequence, and then the rows and columns of the position information are scrambled by the index sequence. In the process of color replacement, the change of pixel value is firstly diffused to each pixel through chaotic sequence, and then the information of each pixel is confused, so as to realize the process of color information replacement. Experimental analysis shows that the encryption scheme in this paper has a good effect.
