TT-SEAL: TTD-Aware Selective Encryption for Adversarially-Robust and Low-Latency Edge AI

Researchers developed TT-SEAL, a selective encryption framework for compressed AI models using Tensor-Train Decomposition that maintains security while encrypting only 4.89-15.92% of parameters. The system achieves the same robustness as full encryption while reducing AES decryption overhead in end-to-end latency from 58% to as low as 2.76%.
