This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation provides $673,162 to Vanderbilt University under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) from October 2022 through November 2024. The funding supports research to develop an intelligent and automatic broad-spectrum image protection system that offers provable privacy guarantees for multiple parties involved in social image sharing while maintaining image quality. Key products and services include a new image privacy policy language and efficient management system; formal privacy models to quantify risks and guarantees; and deep learning-based image modification approaches for facial modification/replacement and cropping to address differing privacy needs regarding the same image while preserving aesthetics. A subaward of $50,000 provides support to the University of Missouri System to leverage the expertise of co-PI Dr. Palaniappan in computer vision, critical to the image privacy protection objectives. The research aims to address privacy concerns in social image sharing that have grown with increased smartphone usage and image sharing online.
