I am reading a research paper on image encryption using chaotic maps.and in between the paper they are using SHA3 encryption to produce 256 bits.
I am not able to understand how are they using SHA3 and how are the 32 hash values of the image being obtained.
please can somebody guide me on this.
some reference

$\begingroup$ In this case you have two options: Either include the relevant passages from the paper or contact the authors and ask them. $\endgroup$ – SEJPM♦ Dec 28 '16 at 13:53

$\begingroup$ actually The link i have updated has that passage regarding SHA3 $\endgroup$ – user311790 Dec 28 '16 at 13:57

My guess: 256 bits = 32 bytes. So compute the SHA3-hash and use the decimal (in the example) values of the 32 resulting bytes.

1$\begingroup$ I suppose we compute the hash of the picture, it's just a file, so a sequence of bytes as well. $\endgroup$ – Henno Brandsma Dec 28 '16 at 16:28
