Visual Cryptography is an encryption technique in which the secret image is encoded and divided into n meaningless images called shares. The shares look like black and white dots embedded randomly in an image. These shares don't reveal any information about the original image. Every share was printed on transparent paper and decrypted through the superimposition of shares without any computer decryption algorithm. When all n shares were overlapped, the original picture would appear. A (k, n)-threshold visual cryptography is a technique in which n is the maximum number of shares that are to be generated and k is the minimum number of shares that are required to decrypt the original image. If the insufficient number of shares, which are less than the k value is given to the decryption function, the decryption function will generate the output, which doesn't reveal any clue to the original image. This paper presents how the Entropy, Mean Square Error (MSE), Peak Signal Noise Ratio (PSNR) values varies with respect to given same image of different sizes.Index Terms-shares, visual cryptography, visual secret sharing I.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
