Oct 06, 2023
In this paper, we propose a privacy-preserving method with a secret key for convolutional neural network (CNN)-based speech classification tasks. Recently, many methods related to privacy preservation have been developed in image classification research fields. In contrast, in speech classification research fields, little research has considered these risks. To promote research on privacy preservation for speech classification, we provide an encryption method with a secret key in CNN-based speech classification systems. The encryption method is based on a random matrix with an invertible inverse. The encrypted speech data with a correct key can be accepted by a model with an encrypted kernel generated using an inverse matrix of a random matrix. Whereas the encrypted speech data is strongly distorted, the classification tasks can be correctly performed when a correct key is provided. Additionally, in this paper, we evaluate the difficulty of reconstructing the original information from the encrypted spectrograms and waveforms. In our experiments, the proposed encryption methods are performed in automatic speech recognition~(ASR) and automatic speaker verification~(ASV) tasks. The results show that the encrypted data can be used completely the same as the original data when a correct secret key is provided in the transformer-based ASR and x-vector-based ASV with self-supervised front-end systems. The robustness of the encrypted data against reconstruction attacks is also illustrated.
A Detection Method of Temporally Operated Videos Using Robust Hashing
Aug 11, 2022
SNS providers are known to carry out the recompression and resizing of uploaded videos/images, but most conventional methods for detecting tampered videos/images are not robust enough against such operations. In addition, videos are temporally operated such as the insertion of new frames and the permutation of frames, of which operations are difficult to be detected by using conventional methods. Accordingly, in this paper, we propose a novel method with a robust hashing algorithm for detecting temporally operated videos even when applying resizing and compression to the videos.
