An improved image compression scheme with an adaptive parameters set in encrypted domain
A growing societal awareness about privacy and security push the development of signal processing techniques in the encrypted domain. Data compression in encrypted domain attracts much attention recently years due to its avoiding the leakage of data source during compression. This paper proposes an improved block-by-block compression scheme of encrypted image with flexible compression ratio. The original image is encrypted by permuting the blocks of the image and then permuting the pixels in the blocks. In the compression, pixels chosen randomly used as reference information, and remaining pixels are compressed by coset code. At the decoder side, side information (SI) which is generated by combining correlation among blocks and image restoration from partial random samples (IRPRS) is utilized to assist the decompression. Moreover, an adaptive system parameters selection method is also given in this paper. The experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve a better reconstructed result compared with the earlier method.
