abstract
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) has several benefits over traditional endoscopy such as
its portability and ease of usage, particularly for remote internet of things (IoT)-assisted
healthcare services. During the WCE procedure, a significant amount of redundant video
data is generated, the transmission of which to healthcare centers and gastroenterologists
securely for analysis is challenging as well as wastage of several resources including energy,
memory, computation, and bandwidth. In addition to this, it is inherently difficult and
time consuming for gastroenterologists to analyze this huge volume of gastrointestinal
video data for desired contents. To surmount these issues, we propose a secure video
summarization framework for outdoor patients going through WCE procedure. In the
proposed system, keyframes are extracted using a light-weighted video summarization
scheme, making it more suitable for WCE. Next, a cryptosystem is presented for security of
extracted keyframes based on 2D Zaslavsky chaotic map. Experimental results validate the
performance of the proposed cryptosystem in terms of robustness and high-level security
compared to other recent image encryption schemes during dissemination of important
keyframes to healthcare centers and gastroenterologists for personalized WCE.

1. Introduction
Digital images play an important role in different areas of interest such as commercial, military, and medical applications.
The security of this specific data has become a major concern in recent years for which researchers have presented numerous
techniques [1,2]. Cryptography is one of the solutions for information security and is considered as one essential aspect for
secure communication over the public network Internet. The security of cryptographic techniques is mainly dependent on
secret keys as dictated by Kirchhoff’s principle [3,4]. These keys are of paramount importance in cryptographic applications
such as image encryption [5,6] and secret stego key sharing [7–9]. Since, the cryptosystem is dependent only on the secret
keys, therefore, it should be nearly impossible to retrieve the information without the exact secret keys. One of the well-
known methods to generate secure cryptographic keys is to use the chaotic systems [10,11].
