An enhanced threshold visual secret sharing based on random grids

TL;DR: A new threshold RG-based VSS scheme aiming at improving the visual quality of the previewed image is presented and can gain better visual quality in the reconstructed images as well as (k, n) threshold.

Improving the visual quality of random grid-based visual secret sharing

TL;DR: Two algorithms, including a contrast-enhanced RG-based VSS and a void-and-cluster-based (VAC-based) post-processing, are introduced to improve the reconstructed image quality, illustrating that competitive visual quality is obtained by combined use of these two methods.

Threshold visual secret sharing by random grids with improved contrast

TL;DR: The experimental results show that the proposed scheme outperforms Chen and Tsao (2011)'s scheme significantly in visual quality, and improves the contrast of Chen andTsao ( 2011)'s threshold scheme.

Random grid-based visual secret sharing with abilities of OR and XOR decryptions

TL;DR: A novel RG-based VSS is developed, where the secret image can be recovered in two situations: (1) when computational devices are not available, the secret images can be reconstructed by stacking the shares directly, and (2) when some light-weight computational Devices are available,The secret imageCan be decrypted by XOR operation, and the decrypted secret image quality is approximately the same as that of conventional RG- based VSS.

A discussion on the relationship between probabilistic visual cryptography and random grid

TL;DR: The probabilistic VCS without pixel expansion is used, to study the construction and performance of RG, and it is pointed out that RG and PVCS have no difference other than the terminology, which is a subset of PVCSs.

Image encryption by random grids

TL;DR: This paper designs algorithms by using random grids to accomplish the encryption of the secret gray-level and color images in such a way that neither of the two encrypted shares alone leaks the information of thesecret image, whereas the secret can be seen when these two shares are superimposed.

Visual authentication and identification

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce visual authentication and visual identification methods, which are authentication and identification methods for human users based on visual cryptography and can be implemented using very common low-tech technology.
