FPGA-based secure and noiseless image transmission using lea and optimized bilateral filter
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2022) Hebbale, Sunil B.; Akula, V. S. Giridhar; Baraki, Parashuram
In today's world, the transmission of secured and noiseless images is a difficult task. Therefore, effective strategies are important for securing data or secret images from attackers. Besides, denoising approaches are important for obtaining noise-free images. For this, an effective crypto-steganography method that is based on a lightweight encryption algorithm (LEA) and the modified least significant bit (MLSB) method for secured transmission is proposed. Moreover, a bilateral filter-based whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is used for image denoising. Before the image transmission, a secret image is encrypted by the LEA algorithm and embedded into the cover image using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and MLSB techniques. After the image transmission, an extraction process is performed in order to recover the secret image. Finally, a bilateral WOA filter is used to remove the noise from the secret image. The Verilog code for the proposed model is designed and simulated in Xilinx software. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed filtering technique results in performance that is superior to conventional bilateral and Gaussian filters in terms of the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index measure (SSIM).

Robust content-based image retrieval using ICCV, GLCM, and DWT-MSLBP descriptors
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2022) Chavda, Sagar; Goyani, Mahesh
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) retrieves visually similar images from a dataset based on a specified query. A CBIR system measures the similarities between a query and the image contents in a dataset and ranks the dataset images. This work presents a novel framework for retrieving similar images based on color and texture features. We have computed color features with an improved color coherence vector (ICCV) and texture features with a gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) along with DWT-MSLBP (which is derived from applying a modified multi-scale local binary pattern [MS-LBP] over a discrete wavelet transform [DWT], resulting in powerful textural features). The optimal features are computed with the help of principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). The proposed work uses a variancebased approach for choosing the number of principal components/eigenvectors in PCA. PCA with a 99.99% variance preserves healthy features, and LDA selects robust ones from the set of features. The proposed method was tested on four benchmark datasets with Euclidean and city-block distances. The proposed method outshines all of the identified state-of-the-art literature methods.
