Efficient Privacy Preserving Viola-Jones Type Object Detection via Random Base Image Representation
A cloud server spent a lot of time, energy and money to train a Viola-Jones
type object detector with high accuracy. Clients can upload their photos to the
cloud server to find objects. However, the client does not want the leakage of
the content of his/her photos. In the meanwhile, the cloud server is also
reluctant to leak any parameters of the trained object detectors. 10 years ago,
Avidan & Butman introduced Blind Vision, which is a method for securely
evaluating a Viola-Jones type object detector. Blind Vision uses standard
cryptographic tools and is painfully slow to compute, taking a couple of hours
to scan a single image. The purpose of this work is to explore an efficient
method that can speed up the process. We propose the Random Base Image (RBI)
Representation. The original image is divided into random base images. Only the
base images are submitted randomly to the cloud server. Thus, the content of
the image can not be leaked. In the meanwhile, a random vector and the secure
Millionaire protocol are leveraged to protect the parameters of the trained
object detector. The RBI makes the integral-image enable again for the great
acceleration. The experimental results reveal that our method can retain the
detection accuracy of that of the plain vision algorithm and is significantly
faster than the traditional blind vision, with only a very low probability of
the information leakage theoretically.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, To appear in the proceedings of the IEEE
