Information security is concerned with maintaining the secrecy, reliability and accessibility of data. The main objective of information security is to protect information and information system from unauthorized access, revelation, disruption, alteration, annihilation and use. This paper uses spatial domain LSB substitution method for information embedding and Arnold's transform is applied twice in two different phases to ensure security. The system is tested and validated against a series of standard images and the results show that the method is highly secure and provides high data hiding capacity.
Picture fuzzy set (PFS) is more comprehensive tool than intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) for modeling the uncertain decision-making problems. In this paper, a new picture fuzzy entropy measure is proposed and proved that the proposed measure satisfies the axiomatic definition of entropy measures for picture fuzzy sets. Besides this, the useful mathematical properties of the new entropy measure are also investigated. The justification of the proposed picture fuzzy measure is established by discussing its particular cases and compares it with the existing entropy measures. Then, for the case where criteria weights are partially known, we used an entropy-based method to produce objective weights. For the uncertain environment, TODIM (portuguese acronym for interactive multicriteria decision-making) and ELECTRE methods are useful for practical problems. Based on the advantages of PFSs,TODIM, and ELECTRE, we proposed an integrated picture fuzzy TODIM-ELECTRE to combine the prominent benefits of these theories. We present the TODIM-ELECTRE model for PFS environment and express the computing steps in brief of this new established model. Thereafter, the superiority of the new model is verified by a numerical example of supplier selection and through comparative study with other existing methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
