OptiPrime framework optimizes private DNN inference with protocol-hardware co-design

Researchers have developed OptiPrime, a framework designed to improve the efficiency of private deep neural network (DNN) inference. This framework addresses the latency issues associated with hybrid homomorphic encryption (HE) and multi-party computation (MPC) by co-optimizing protocols and hardware. OptiPrime introduces a new HE protocol for convolutions that significantly reduces the number of transmitted ciphertexts, thereby mitigating network communication bottlenecks. Additionally, it incorporates a lightweight compression system for weight plaintexts and a specialized dataflow to enhance on-chip data reuse, leading to substantial performance gains. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient and secure deployment of AI models in privacy-sensitive applications.
