Abstract
This study improves the Logistic chaotic system and combines it with the hyperchaotic Chen system to create a dual chaotic system. The algorithm encrypts images in three stages. In the first stage, a plaintext-related key generation scheme is designed to generate the parameters and initial values of the dual chaotic system. In the second stage, the chaotic sequences generated by the dual chaotic system are used for dynamic DNA encoding and computation. In the third stage, the chaotic sequences generated by the improved Logistic chaotic system are used to perform row-column permutations, completing the scrambling. The security analysis of the encrypted images shows that the algorithm described in this paper is robust and secure, capable of resisting most known attacks. The algorithm is fast in encryption, provides high-quality image reconstruction, and is suitable for scenarios with high comprehensive performance and image quality requirements.
