Abstract

Machine learning models are now being widely deployed in clouds, but serious data leakage problems are also exposed when dealing with sensitive data. Homomorphic encryption (HE) has been used in the secure inference on unimodal private data because of its ability to calculate encrypted data. Although the privacy protection of multimodal data is of great significance, there is still no privacy-preserving inference scheme for multimodal data. In this work, we propose a lightweight and efficient homomorphic-encryption based framework that enables privacy-preserving multimodal representation inference. Firstly, we propose an HE scheme based on Tensor Fusion Network, which can perform encrypted multimodal feature fusion. Then we propose a pre-expansion method and a packaging method for multimodal data, which can effectively reduce the time delay and data traffic of homomorphic computing. The experimental results show that our encryption inference method has almost no loss of accuracy and obtains an F1 score of 0.7697, while using less than 220KB of data throughput and about 0.91 s of evaluation time.
