A NOVEL ALGORITHM FOR IMAGE ENCRYPTION BASED ON COUPLE CHAOTIC SYSTEMS.

In this paper, an image encryption algorithm based on couple multiple chaotic systems is presented. It made the one-dimensional Coupled Map Lattice (CML) formed by Skew Tent map as spatiotemporal chaotic system and made its output sequence as the initial value of logistic and meanwhile did iterative of specific times to get the final key sequence, and then did XOR operations with corresponding pixels to finish the encryption. Numerical analysis expresses that this algorithm has large enough space and high security. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
