• Abstract: The popularization of intelligent healthcare devices and big data analytics significantly boosts the development of smart healthcare networks (SHNs). To enhance the precision of diagnosis, different participants in SHNs share health data that contains sensitive information. Therefore, the data exchange process raises privacy concerns, especially when the integration of health data from multiple sources (linkage attack) results in further leakage. Linkage attack is a type of dominant attack in the privacy domain, which can leverage various data sources for private data mining. Furthermore, adversaries launch poisoning attacks to falsify the health data, which leads to misdiagnosing or even physical damage. To protect private health data, we propose a personalized differential privacy model based on the trust levels among users. The trust is evaluated by a defined community density, while the corresponding privacy protection level is mapped to controllable randomized noise constrained by differential privacy. To avoid linkage attacks in personalized differential privacy, we designed a noise correlation decoupling mechanism using a Markov stochastic process. In addition, we build the community model on a blockchain, which can mitigate the risk of poisoning attacks during differentially private data transmission over SHNs. To testify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed approach, we conduct extensive experiments on benchmark datasets.

  We propose a new framework termed Abstention-Aware Federated Voting (AAFV) AAFV can collaboratively and confidentially train heterogeneous local models while simultaneously protecting the data privacy. In particular, the proposed abstention-aware voting mechanism exploits a threshold-based abstention method to select high-confidence votes from heterogeneous local models.

  Preserving individual privacy and enabling efficient social learning are both important desiderata but seem fundamentally at odds with each other. We do so by controlling information leakage using rigorous statistical guarantees that are based on differential privacy (DP) Our results flesh out the nature of the trade-offs in both cases between the quality of the group decision outcomes, learning accuracy, communication cost, and the level of privacy protections that the agents are afforded.

Overcoming these obstacles is key for technological progress in many real-world application scenarios that involve privacy sensitive data. Differentially private (DP) data publishing provides a compelling solution, where only a sanitized form of the data is publicly released.
