This study presents a novel privacy-preserving self-supervised (SSL) framework for COVID-19 classification from lung CT scans, utilizing federated learning (FL) enhanced with Paillier homomorphic encryption (PHE) to prevent third-party attacks during training. The FL-SSL based framework employs two publicly available lung CT scan datasets which are considered as labeled and an unlabeled dataset. The unlabeled dataset is split into three subsets which are assumed to be collected from three hospitals.

In the rapidly evolving healthcare sector, using advanced technologies to improve medical classification systems has become crucial for enhancing patient care, diagnosis, and treatment planning. There are two main challenges faced in this domain (i) imbalanced distribution of medical data, leading to biased model performance and (ii) the need to preserve patient privacy and comply with data protection regulations. The primary goal of this project is to develop a medical classification model for Alzheimer's disease detection that can effectively learn from decentralized and imbalanced datasets without compromising on data privacy.

The emergence of 6G networks promises ultra-high data rates and unprecedented connectivity. However, the effective utilization of the millimeter-wave (mmWave) as a critical enabler of foreseen potential in 6G, poses significant challenges due to its unique propagation characteristics and security concerns. Deep learning (DL)/machine learning (ML) based approaches emerged as potential solutions; however, DL/ML contains centralization and data privacy issues.

Importance: In poor-prognosis children's cancers, new therapies may carry fresh hope for patients and parents. However, there is an absolute requirement for any new therapy to be properly evaluated to fulfill scientific, regulatory, and reimbursement requirements. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard, but no consensus exists on how and when they should be deployed to best meet the needs of all stakeholders.
