This project will focus on the several scientific problems in the field of optical information security by using the physical understanding and the concerned techniques of ptychographic imaging. Discovering the inherent connection between the problem of ptychographic imaging and the problems of optical security, the project will take advantages of ptychographic imaging such as the simple configuration, the high flexibility, the excellent scalability and the robust stability, and it mainly contains: (1) The three-dimensional information cryptosystem based on ptychographic imaging: to achieve the good balance between the system security, decrypted quality and the valid security, to combine the functions of collection and encryption of three-dimensional information and to develop the concerned theory, techniques and the realizations, and to explore the application system for obtaining and securing a sort of three-dimensional biometric information. (2) The unified model of attack on cascaded optical cryptography: to construct the basic model and corresponding algorithm for attacking on classical cascaded optical cryptosystems, to attack the enhanced cascaded optical cryptosystems such as the nonlinear and the asymmetric systems, to reveal the security vulnerability and its generality, and further, to achieve the unified model, analytic paradigm and security standards for attacking on cascaded optical cryptography. Thus, our project would like to do some research work with certain characteristics and application prospects in the fields of optical information security with the unique advantages of ptychographic imaging.
