Privacy considerations and bias in datasets are quickly becoming high-priority issues that the computer vision community needs to face. So far, little attention has been given to practical solutions that do not involve collection of new datasets. In this work, we show that for object detection on COCO, both anonymizing the dataset by blurring faces, as well as swapping faces in a balanced manner along the gender and skin tone dimension, can retain object detection performances while preserving privacy and partially balancing bias.

Video privacy leakage is becoming an increasingly severe public problem, especially in cloud-based video surveillance systems. It leads to the new need for secure cloud-based video applications, where the video is encrypted for privacy protection. Despite some methods that have been proposed for encrypted video moving object detection and tracking, none has robust performance against complex and dynamic scenes. In this paper, we propose an efficient and robust privacy-preserving motion detection and multiple object tracking scheme for encrypted surveillance video bitstreams. By analyzing the properties of the video codec and format-compliant encryption schemes, we propose a new compressed-domain feature to capture motion information in complex surveillance scenarios. Based on this feature, we design an adaptive clustering algorithm for moving object segmentation with an accuracy of 4x4 pixels. We then propose a multiple object tracking scheme that uses Kalman filter estimation and adaptive measurement refinement. The proposed scheme does not require video decryption or full decompression and has a very low computation load. The experimental results demonstrate that our scheme achieves the best detection and tracking performance compared with existing works in the encrypted and compressed domain. Our scheme can be effectively used in complex surveillance scenarios with different challenges, such as camera movement/jitter, dynamic background, and shadows.
This study proposes a privacy-preserving Visual SLAM framework for estimating camera poses and performing bundle adjustment with mixed line and point clouds in real time. Previous studies have proposed localization methods to estimate a camera pose using a line-cloud map for a single image or a reconstructed point cloud. These methods offer a scene privacy protection against the inversion attacks by converting a point cloud to a line cloud, which reconstruct the scene images from the point cloud. However, they are not directly applicable to a video sequence because they do not address computational efficiency. This is a critical issue to solve for estimating camera poses and performing bundle adjustment with mixed line and point clouds in real time. Moreover, there has been no study on a method to optimize a line-cloud map of a server with a point cloud reconstructed from a client video because any observation points on the image coordinates are not available to prevent the inversion attacks, namely the reversibility of the 3D lines. The experimental results with synthetic and real data show that our Visual SLAM framework achieves the intended privacy-preserving formation and real-time performance using a line-cloud map.
Due to medical data privacy regulations, it is often infeasible to collect and share patient data in a centralised data lake. This poses challenges for training machine learning algorithms, such as deep convolutional networks, which often require large numbers of diverse training examples. Federated learning sidesteps this difficulty by bringing code to the patient data owners and only sharing intermediate model training updates among them. Although a high-accuracy model could be achieved by appropriately aggregating these model updates, the model shared could indirectly leak the local training examples. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of applying differential-privacy techniques to protect the patient data in a federated learning setup. We implement and evaluate practical federated learning systems for brain tumour segmentation on the BraTS dataset. The experimental results show that there is a trade-off between model performance and privacy protection costs.
When convoking privacy, group membership verification checks if a biometric trait corresponds to one member of a group without revealing the identity of that member. Similarly, group membership identification states which group the individual belongs to, without knowing his/her identity. A recent contribution provides privacy and security for group membership protocols through the joint use of two mechanisms: quantizing biometric templates into discrete embeddings and aggregating several templates into one group representation. This paper significantly improves that contribution because it jointly learns how to embed and aggregate instead of imposing fixed and hard coded rules. This is demonstrated by exposing the mathematical underpinnings of the learning stage before showing the improvements through an extensive series of experiments targeting face recognition. Overall, experiments show that learning yields an excellent trade-off between security /privacy and verification /identification performances.
The use of Deep Learning in the medical field is hindered by the lack of interpretability. Case-based interpretability strategies can provide intuitive explanations for deep learning models decisions, thus, enhancing trust. However, the resulting explanations threaten patient privacy, motivating the development of privacy-preserving methods compatible with the specifics of medical data. In this work, we analyze existing privacy-preserving methods and their respective capacity to anonymize medical data while preserving disease-related semantic features. We find that the PPRL-VGAN deep learning method was the best at preserving the disease-related semantic features while guaranteeing a high level of privacy among the compared state-of-the-art methods. Nevertheless, we emphasize the need to improve privacy-preserving methods for medical imaging, as we identified relevant drawbacks in all existing privacy-preserving approaches.
