In this paper, a novel chaotic image encryption scheme based on the inverse fractal interpolation function system is proposed. The inverse fractal interpolation function system associated with fractal interpolation surface is applied to generate chaotic sequences. The derived sequences are then employed to permute the pixel positions to get the shuffled image by chaotic sequence sorting. The obtained chaotic sequences are then quantized to yield one pseudo-random gray value sequence used to perform diffusion to enhance the security. The security and performance of the proposed image encryption scheme have been analysed, including histograms, correlation coefficients, information entropy, differential analysis, etc. All the experimental results suggest that the proposed image encryption scheme is robust and secure and can be used for secure image and video communication applications.
