Abstract
Visual cryptography is an encryption technique that hides a secret image by distributing it between some shared images made up of seemingly random black-and-white pixels. Extended visual cryptography (EVC) goes further in that the shared images instead represent meaningful binary pictures. The original approach to EVC suffered from low contrast, so later papers considered how to improve the visual quality of the results by enhancing contrast of the shared images. This work further improves the appearance of the shared images by preserving edge structures within them using a framework of dithering followed by a detail recovery operation.We are also careful to suppress noise in smooth areas.
