Analyzing the Impact of Personalization on Fairness in Federated Learning for Healthcare.

As machine learning (ML) usage becomes more popular in the healthcare sector, there are also increasing concerns about potential biases and risks such as privacy. One countermeasure is to use federated learning (FL) to support collaborative learning without the need for patient data sharing across different organizations. However, the inherent heterogeneity of data distributions among participating FL parties poses challenges for exploring group fairness in FL.

Applications of Federated Learning in Mobile Health: Scoping Review.

Background: The proliferation of mobile health (mHealth) applications is partly driven by the advancements in sensing and communication technologies, as well as the integration of artificial intelligence techniques. Data collected from mHealth applications, for example, on sensor devices carried by patients, can be mined and analyzed using artificial intelligence-based solutions to facilitate remote and (near) real-time decision-making in health care settings. However, such data often sit in data silos, and patients are often concerned about the privacy implications of sharing their raw data.

Emerging Artificial Intelligence-Empowered mHealth: Scoping Review.

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized health care delivery in recent years. There is an increase in research for advanced AI techniques, such as deep learning, to build predictive models for the early detection of diseases. Such predictive models leverage mobile health (mHealth) data from wearable sensors and smartphones to discover novel ways for detecting and managing chronic diseases and mental health conditions.

Private Data Analytics on Biomedical Sensing Data via Distributed Computation.

Advances in biomedical sensors and mobile communication technologies have fostered the rapid growth of mobile health (mHealth) applications in the past years. Users generate a high volume of biomedical data during health monitoring, which can be used by the mHealth server for training predictive models for disease diagnosis and treatment. However, the biomedical sensing data raise serious privacy concerns because they reveal sensitive information such as health status and lifestyles of the sensed subjects.
