Abstract

The rapid healthcare system digitization has resulted in the creation of huge volumes of sensitive healthcare information, which allows developing Diagnostics based on artificial intelligence (AI). Nonetheless, the issue of data privacy, security and regulatory compliance has constrained the distribution of medical datasets between institutions. Federated Learning (FL) has become a potentially promising paradigm that enables collaborative model training and eliminates the necessity to centralize data, thus maintaining patient privacy and utilizing distributed sources of data.
