Towards Privacy – Preserving Content – Based Image Retrieval in Cloud Computing
Abstract
Introduction
Towards Privacy-preserving Content-based Image Retrieval in Cloud Computing Massive images are generated and distributed with the rapid development of Multimedia and the Internet, and how to efficiently store and share such a large amount of data becomes an important issue.
Because of its tremendous advantages such as on-demand self-service, ubiquitous network access, location-independent resource pooling, rapid resource elasticity, usage-based pricing, and risk transfer, it is a natural solution to outsource images in cloud service.
Towards Privacy-preserving Content-based Image Retrieval in Cloud Computing(CBIR), which involves the extraction of visual features from image and the search for similar images in the visual feature space, has grown rapidly in recent years.
