【 摘 要 】

Abstract In a (k,n) threshold secret image sharing scheme, a secret image is encrypted into n image-shadows that satisfy the following: (1) any less than k image-shadows get no information on the image and (2) any k or more image-shadows can reconstruct the entire image. Cheating problem is an important issue in traditional secret sharing scheme. However, this issue has not been discussed sufficiently in the field of secret image sharing. In this paper, we consider the scenario of cheating behavior in secret image sharing scheme and construct a (k,n) threshold secret image sharing scheme which is capable of cheating detection. Our proposed scheme is able to detect the cheating behavior from up to k − 1 cheaters, and the size of image-shadow is almost same as the image-shadow in the original secret image sharing scheme.
