Abstract

Abstract

In order to improve the restoration effect of Visual Secret Sharing (VSS), a visual multi-secret sharing scheme based on random grid is proposed. By using a multi secret image sharing scheme based on random mesh threshold of cylindrical surface, users can share multiple secret images at one time. This scheme has good robustness, so even part of the share images are tampered, the secret image can still be recovered. At the same time, the number of shares has a positive correlation with the visual quality of the final recovered image. Simulation results show that the proposed multi secret vision sharing scheme is two times better than original single secret vision sharing scheme in terms of pixel recovery accuracy, that is, it increases the number of secret images and improves the recovery accuracy.
