Privacy-preserving content-based image retrieval aims to safeguard the security of outsourced private images while maintaining their searchability. However, existing schemes encounter challenges in striking a balance between security, accuracy, and efficiency, as well as difficulties in scaling to large-scale image retrieval in multi-user settings. In this paper, we propose a novel Efficient Large-Scale Encrypted Image Retrieval (ELSEIR) framework for outsourced data sharing. We first utilize a deep hashing model …
