Abstract :
This paper proposes a method to encrypt an image in two shares with following properties. (1) The method is suitable for binary, gray level or color image encryption. (2) The bit error rates are adjustable, and thus the secret image can be recovered to different extents including lossless and nearly lossless. (3) Sizes of the share images are flexible to be changed, and thus the method can be used in different transmission environments. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
