Enhancing Data Privacy Protection and Feature Extraction in Secure Computing Using a Hash Tree and Skip Attention Mechanism

Abstract

This paper addresses the critical challenge of secure computing in the context of deep learning, focusing on the pressing need for effective data privacy protection during transmission and storage, particularly in sensitive fields such as finance and healthcare. To tackle this issue, we propose a novel deep learning model that integrates a hash tree structure with a skip attention mechanism. The hash tree is employed to ensure data integrity and security, enabling the rapid verification of data changes, while the skip attention mechanism enhances computational efficiency by allowing the model to selectively focus on important features, thus minimizing unnecessary processing. The primary objective of our research is to develop a secure computing model that not only safeguards data privacy but also optimizes feature extraction capabilities. Our experimental results on the CIFAR-10 dataset demonstrate significant improvements over traditional models, achieving a precision of 0.94, a recall of 0.89, an accuracy of 0.92, and an F1-score of 0.91, notably outperforming standard self-attention and CBAM. Additionally, the visualization of results confirms that our approach effectively balances efficient feature extraction with robust data privacy protection. This research contributes a new framework for secure computing, addressing both the security and efficiency concerns prevalent in current methodologies.
