• Abstract: Inpatient violence is a common and severe problem within psychiatry. Knowing who might become violent can influence staffing levels and mitigate severity. Predictive machine learning models can assess each patient's likelihood of becoming violent based on clinical notes. Yet, while machine learning models benefit from having more data, data availability is limited as hospitals typically do not share their data for privacy preservation. Federated Learning (FL) can overcome the problem of data limitation by training models in a decentralised manner, without disclosing data between collaborators. However, although several FL approaches exist, none of these train Natural Language Processing models on clinical notes. In this work, we investigate the application of Federated Learning to clinical Natural Language Processing, applied to the task of Violence Risk Assessment by simulating a cross-institutional psychiatric setting. We train and compare four models: two local models, a federated model and a data-centralised model. Our results indicate that the federated model outperforms the local models and has similar performance as the data-centralised model. These findings suggest that Federated Learning can be used successfully in a cross-institutional setting and is a step towards new applications of Federated Learning based on clinical notes

  In this paper, we take advantage of the inherent properties of neural networks to federate the process of training of survival analysis models. In the realistic setting of small medical datasets and only a few data centers, this noise makes it harder for the models to converge. We propose DPFed-post which adds a post-processing stage to the private federated learning scheme.

  To train a high-quality deep learning model, the aggregation of a significant amount of patient information is required. Due to the need to protect the privacy of patient data, it is hard to assemble a central database from multiple institutions. Federated learning allows for population-level models to be trained without centralizing entities' data.
