• Abstract summary: Federated learning (FL) is a decentralized method enabling hospitals to collaboratively learn a model without sharing private patient data for training. In FL, participant hospitals periodically exchange training results rather than training samples with a central server. In our proposed method, the hospitals are divided into clusters. After local training, each hospital splits its model weights among other hospitals in the same cluster. Then, all hospitals sum up the received weights, sending the results to the central server. Finally, the central server aggregates the results, retrieving the average of models' weights and updating the model without having access to individual hospitals' weights.

• Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is a decentralized method enabling hospitals to collaboratively learn a model without sharing private patient data for training. In FL, participant hospitals periodically exchange training results rather than training samples with a central server. However, having access to model parameters or gradients can expose private training data samples. To address this challenge, we adopt secure multiparty computation (SMC) to establish a privacy-preserving federated learning framework. In our proposed method, the hospitals are divided into clusters. After local training, each hospital splits its model weights among other hospitals in the same cluster such that no single hospital can retrieve other hospitals' weights on its own. Then, all hospitals sum up the received weights, sending the results to the central server. Finally, the central server aggregates the results, retrieving the average of models' weights and updating the model without having access to individual hospitals' weights. We conduct experiments on a publicly available repository, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We compare the performance of the proposed framework with differential privacy and federated averaging as the baseline. The results reveal that compared to differential privacy, our framework can achieve higher accuracy with no privacy leakage risk at a cost of higher communication overhead.

  Predicting hospital length of stay (LOS) reliably is an essential need for efficient resource allocation at hospitals. Traditional predictive modeling tools frequently have difficulty acquiring sufficient and diverse data because healthcare institutions have privacy rules in place. This modeling approach facilitates collaborative model training by modeling decentralized data sources from different hospitals without extracting sensitive data outside of hospitals.

  Federated learning (FL) and Split Learning (SL) are two frameworks that enable collaborative learning while keeping the data private (on device) In FL, each data holder trains a model locally and releases it to a central server for aggregation. In SL, the clients must release individual cut-layer activations (smashed data) to the server and wait for its response (during both inference and back propagation). In this work, we present a novel approach for privacy-preserving machine learning, where the clients collaborate via online knowledge distillation using a contrastive loss.

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.

  Deep learning models often exhibit performance loss due to dataset shift.
