PermutEx: Feature-Extraction-Based Permutation — A New Diffusion Scheme for Image Encryption Algorithms (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khan, M. S., Ahmad, J., Al-Dubai, A., Jaroucheh, Z., Pitropakis, N., & Buchanan, W. J. (2023, November). PermutEx: Feature-Extraction-Based Permutation — A New Diffusion Scheme for Image Encryption Algorithms. Presented at 2023 IEEE 28th International Workshop on Computer Aided Modeling and Design of Communication Links and Networks (CAMAD), Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Traditional permutation schemes mostly focus on random scrambling of pixels, often neglecting the intrinsic image information that could enhance diffusion in image encryption algorithms. This paper introduces PermutEx, a feature-extractionbased permu... Read More about PermutEx: Feature-Extraction-Based Permutation — A New Diffusion Scheme for Image Encryption Algorithms.
