An Enhanced Location Scattering Based Privacy Protection Scheme

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Consumer privacy-preserving is a major concern in location-based services (LBSs). The paramount problem in LBSs is the disclosure of a user’s actual location while interacting with the location-based service provider (LSP).

Adversarial Privacy Protection on Speech Enhancement

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
Speech is easily leaked imperceptibly, such as being recorded by mobile phones in different situations. Private content in speech may be maliciously extracted through speech enhancement technology. Speech enhancement technology has developed rapidly along with deep neural networks (DNNs), but adversarial examples can cause DNNs to fail.

Image enhancement via texture protection Retinex [PDF]

open access: yesIET Image Processing, 2021
Abstract Images obtained in dim light do not clearly represent the target scene, limiting information transmission on the image carrier. This study proposes a texture‐preserving image enhancement method, i.e. ETPR. The proposed method draws the illumination map of a low light image by Max‐RGB, and then applies the weighted median ...
