Abstract:With growing emphasis on privacy protection, homomorphic encryption (HE) has emerged as a core method for privacy-preserving image processing, as it enables operations directly on encrypted data. However, existing research predominantly focuses on low-resolution image processing, and techniques for privacy-preserving high-resolution image processing remain underexplored. As the image size increases, the HE parameters must be adjusted accordingly, and directly applying existing methods can lead to significant computational overhead. In this work, we propose a multi-ciphertext privacy-preserving framework for large images, enabling efficient image encryption and computation under the semi-honest model. Specifically, we divide the large image into multiple sub-images, which allows us to maintain smaller HE parameters and reduce key size. By parallel processing the sub-image ciphertexts and introducing a new bootstrapping placement strategy, we significantly reduce encryption overhead and enhance user experience. On the server side, we optimize the large image convolution operation through a repeated packing technique and implement the Sobel operator computation based on HE. To improve gradient direction calculation for the Sobel operator, we introduce a new polynomial approximation method for the reciprocal function based on the sign function, which can be applied to other HE-based protocols.
