Deep Learning Hash for Wireless Multimedia Image Content Security

Abstract EN

With the explosive growth of the wireless multimedia data on the wireless Internet, a large number of illegal images have been widely disseminated in wireless networks, which seriously endangers the content security of wireless networks.

However, how to identify and classify illegal images quickly, accurately, and in real time is a key challenge for wireless multimedia networks.

To avoid illegal images circulating on the Internet, each image needs to be detected, extracted features, and compared with the image in the feature library to verify the legitimacy of the image.

An improved image deep learning hash (IDLH) method to learn compact binary codes for image search is proposed in this paper.

Specifically, there are three major processes of IDLH: the feature extraction, deep secondary search, and image classification.

IDLH performs image retrieval by the deep neural networks (DNN) as well as image classification with the binary hash codes.

Different from other deep learning-hash methods that often entail heavy computations by using a conventional classifier, exemplified by K nearest neighbor (K-NN) and support vector machines (SVM), our method learns classifiers using binary hash codes, which can be learned synchronously in training.

Finally, comprehensive experiments are conducted to evaluate IDLH method by using CIFAR-10 and Caltech 256 image library datasets, and the results show that the retrieval performance of IDLH method can effectively identify illegal images.
