<p>Este artículo presenta una alternativa para resolver la vulnerabilidad existente en los sistemas que implementan el enmascaramiento mediante la sincronización caótica, este sistema evita que los parámetros utilizados como clave de cifrado puedan ser detectados por un atacante al implementar el modelo matemático caótico del oscilador de Rössler para codificar y establecer la sincronización entre los dispositivos transmisor-receptor; además usa dos llaves de cifrado: la primera con una longitud recomendable de 2048 caracteres y la segunda se utiliza como un valor inicial. Ambas llaves se emplean para modificar continuamente uno de los parámetros del oscilador, esto fortalece la seguridad del sistema y evita que un atacante obtenga los valores del parámetro del oscilador calculando el error de sincronización promedio menor. El uso del sistema desarrollado proporciona un cifrado resistente a ataques estadísticos, además valida datos del dispositivo transmisor (nombre de usuario, password, etc.) para autorizar la transmisión hacia el destino.</p>
At present, facial recognition entertains great importance in performing authentication processes, because it prevents unauthorized access to devices and places. Additionally, it allows for the identification of persons. Henceforth, this paper proposes a novel texture descriptor called Cyclical Chroma and a new classification technique, which takes in consideration the sub‐pixel values of 0–255 for each RGB (Red, Green, Blue) channel that conforms the image. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed techniques, tests were performed with a database of images in a controlled environment and in one under uncontrolled conditions; additionally, Cyclical Chroma was tested with a different classifier, denominated the Multiclass Classifier, and the results were compared against other descriptors, including GLCM, SHDH, LQP, and CCR, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed techniques with 100% efficiency with controlled images and 78% effectiveness under uncontrolled conditions prior to the application of an equalization technique, increasing the efficiency to 100%.
In this work, steganography is implemented in photographs captured by an unmanned aerial vehicle (drone), with the purpose of adding an identifier that indicates which device they are taken from so it works for the recovery of the origin. In the system, a new technique that modifies the least significant bit (LSB) is applied, using a mathematical model to generate the chaotic orbits, one of the parts selects the RGB channel (Red, Green or Blue) where the LSB is changed and the other is implemented to calculate the random position of the sub pixel to be modified in the selected channel. In addition, a comparison between the bit to be hidden and the LSB of the pixel of the image is performed to verify if it is not necessary to modify it, which lessens the alterations in the container image. It is a tool to capture photos remotely with the Ar.Drone 2.0, with the features needed to perform an analysis that uses correlation diagrams and histograms to verify if the integrity of the message is guaranteed or if changes in the stego-image are visible to the naked eye. On the other hand, a test was done on the Baboon image to compare the robustness of the proposed system with other investigations, evaluating the correlation, contrast, energy, homogeneity, MSE, PSNR and quality index. The results generated were compared with the work of other authors concluding our system provides greater security, integrity, high sensitivity to the keys, it is not linked to a single chaotic system and can be applied to hide imperceptibly all kinds of information, in: radiographs, videos, files, official documents, and other types of containers.
In this article, a safe communication system is proposed that implements one or more portable devices denominated SBC (single-board computers), with which photographs are taken and that later utilizes the OpenCV Library for the detection and identification of the faces that appear in them. Subsequently, it consults the information in a stored database, whether locally in SBC or in a remote server, to verify that the faces should be coded, and it encrypts these, implementing a new cryptosystem that executes mathematical models to generate chaotic orbits, one of which is used for application on two occasions the technique of diffusion with the purpose of carrying out a small change in one of the pixels of the image, generating very different cryptograms. In addition, in order to make a safer system, it implements other chaotic orbits during the technique of confusion. With the purpose of verifying the robustness of the encryption algorithm, a statistical analysis is performed employing histograms, horizontal, vertical, and diagonal correlation diagrams, entropy, number of pixel change rate (NPCR), unified average change intensity (UACI), sensitivity of the key, encryption quality analysis, and the avalanche effect. The cryptosystem is very robust in that it generates highly disordered cryptograms, supports differential attacks, and in addition is highly sensitive to changes in the pixels as well as in the encrypted keys.
Safeguarding the identity of people in photographs or videos published through social networks or television is of great importance to those who do not wish to be recognized. In this paper, a face detecting and coding system is designed with the goal of solving this problem. Mathematical models to generate chaotic orbits are deployed. One of them applies the diffusion technique to scramble the pixels of each face while another implements the confusion technique to alter the relation between plain text and ciphered text. Afterward, another two orbits are utilized for the steganography technique to modify the least significant bit (LSB) to conceal data that would allow authorized users to decipher the faces. To verify the robustness of the proposed encryption algorithm, different tests are performed with the Lena standard image, such as correlation diagrams, histograms, and entropy. In addition, occlusion, noise, and plain image attacks are performed. The results are compared with those of other works, and the proposed system provided high sensitivity at secret key and a large space for the encryption keys, good speed for ciphering, disorder in the cryptogram, security, data integrity, and robustness against different attacks.
The antilock braking system (ABS) is a mechatronic system that helps a driver maintain the maneuverability of a vehicle while braking by preventing wheel lock-ups. However, the design of high-performance controllers for this type of system is complicated because of its highly nonlinear dynamics. The problem becomes even more difficult to resolve when uncertainties in the parameters appear in its dynamics. In this paper, an ABS laboratory setup mimicking a quarter car model is considered. A modified high-order sliding mode (HOSM) controller using a proportional–integral–differential (PID) control as a sliding surface was designed. This controller provides a reference value of a tire slip. The proposed controller uses a tracking error to define the slip surface through the PID controller structure, and the modified HOSM controller holds the system on the previously designed slip surface. The closed-loop system stability has been proven in the sense of Lyapunov. Finally, the ABS laboratory setup allows for experimentally checking the performance of the modified HOSM controller using a PID-sliding surface, showing a considerable increase in the efficiency of the control system compared with a PID-like controller.
