Binarized Neural Networks (BNN) provide efficient implementations for machine learning tasks, enabling Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning (PPML) by simplifying operations with binary values. However, challenges persist in terms of communication and accuracy in their application scenarios. This work introduces CBNN, a three-party secure computation framework tailored for efficient BNN inference, leveraging knowledge distillation, separable convolutions, and optimized protocols for basic operations. Specifically, CBNN enhances linear operations using replicated secret sharing, MPC-friendly convolutions, and a novel secure activation function to optimize non-linear operations. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of CBNN by securely implementing several typical BNN models with impressive performance despite customized binarization and security measures.

This research paper is about making sure that a special type of computer program called Binarized Neural Networks (BNN) can be used safely and efficiently. These programs are good for doing certain tasks on computers, but they have some problems with how they share information and make decisions. The researchers created a new system called CBNN that helps solve these problems by making the programs work in a special way. They tested their system with several different types of BNN models and found that it works really well.
