Title
Critical-weight based locking scheme for DNN IP protection in edge computing: work-in-progress
Abstract
ABSTRACTIt is a challenging task to resist illegal usage of Deep Neural Network (DNN) models in applications from edge computing. The existed protection method is developed based on encrypting all weights of DNN models and has achieved a promising result, which however suffers from a high computation cost. In this paper, we design a critical-weight based method to lock the DNN model to defend unauthorized usage, leading to a significant decrease in the time cost. To be specific, we analyse and figure out the critical weights of a DNN model, and then encrypt the critical weights to lock the DNN model. A set of preliminary experiments are conducted to testify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
