The increased demand of multimedia leads to shortage of network bandwidth and memory capacity. As a result, image compression is more significant for decreasing data redundancy, saving storage space and bandwidth. Along with the compression the next major challenge in this field is to safeguard the compressed data further from the spy which are commonly known as hackers. It is evident that the major increments in the fields like communication, wireless sensor network, data science, cloud computing and machine learning not only eases the operations of the related field but also increases the challenges as well. This paper proposes a worthy composition for image compression encryption based on unsupervised learning i.e. k-means clustering for compression with logistic chaotic map for encryption. The main advantage of the above combination is to address the problem of data storage and the security of the visual data as well. The algorithm reduces the size of the input image and also gives the larger key space for encryption. The validity of the algorithm is testified with the PSNR, MSE, SSIM and Correlation coefficient.

This paper proposes a digital image compression-encryption scheme based on the theory of singular value decomposition, multiple chaos and Beta function, which uses SVD to compress the digital image and utilizes three way protections for encryption viz. logistic and Arnold map along with the beta function. The algorithm has three advantages: First, the compression scheme gives the freedom to a user so that one can select the desired compression level according to the application with the help of singular value. Second, it includes a confusion mechanism wherein the pixel positions of image are scrambled employing Cat Map. The pixel location is shuffled, resulting in a cipher text image that is safe for communication. Third the key is generated with the help of logistic map which is nonlinear and chaotic in nature therefore highly secured. Fourth the beta function used for encryption is symmetric in nature which means the order of its parameters does not change the outcome of the operation, meaning faithful reconstruction of an image. Thus, the algorithm is highly secured and also saving the storage space as well. The experimental results show that the algorithm has the advantages of faithful reconstruction with reasonable PSNR on different singular values.
