Randomness Evaluation for Scrambled Image Using Intersecting Cortical Model Neural Network

Article Preview

Abstract:

A bio-inspired visual neural network named ICMNN was adopted to extract image structural information for image scrambling evaluation. In order to describe image structure more effectively with ICMNN, image bitmap was introduced into ICMNN input field. First, the original image was decomposed into eight binary images and each was scrambled with Arnold transformation without loss of generality. Then, ICMNN was adopted to extract the structural feature sequence of bitmap images and their corresponding scrambled ones. Last, L1 norm of the structure change sequence between them was calculated to evaluate the scrambling degree of the scrambling images. Results show that combining image bitmap decomposition with ICMNN can effectively evaluate image scrambling degree and describe the change of the structure information, which agrees with human visual perception. This evaluation algorithm is also independent of the scrambling algorithm and has a good versatility.
