用联邦学习保护隐私,实现多中心脑影像的阿尔茨海默病精准诊断。

Federated Learning for Privacy-Preserving Medical AI

  • 按机构边界划分数据,模拟真实医疗协作场景。
  • 动态调整隐私保护强度,两客户端最高达80.4%准确率。
  • 验证了联邦优化算法在隐私约束下的实用性,适合医疗落地。

本论文研究基于联邦学习的隐私保护方法,用于阿尔茨海默病分类,数据来自阿尔茨海默病神经影像计划(ADNI)的三维MRI。现有方法常存在不合理的数据划分、隐私保障不足和缺乏充分评估的问题,限制其在医疗中的实际应用。为此,本文提出一种站点感知的数据划分策略,保留机构边界,反映真实多中心协作与数据异质性。同时引入自适应局部差分隐私(ALDP)机制,根据训练进程和参数特征动态调整隐私参数,显著提升隐私-效用平衡,优于传统固定噪声方法。在多个客户端联邦设置和不同隐私预算下进行系统评估,发现先进联邦优化算法(尤其是FedProx)可在确保严格隐私保护的前提下,达到或超过集中式训练性能。值得注意的是,ALDP在双客户端配置中最高实现80.4%准确率,比固定噪声局部差分隐私高5-7个百分点,并表现出更强训练稳定性。全面的消融实验与基准测试建立了隐私保护医疗人工智能的量化标准,为实际部署提供实用指导。该工作推动了医学影像联邦学习的前沿发展,为未来医疗隐私合规AI应用奠定了方法基础与实证依据。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This dissertation investigates privacy-preserving federated learning for Alzheimer's disease classification using three-dimensional MRI data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI). Existing methodologies often suffer from unrealistic data partitioning, inadequate privacy guarantees, and insufficient benchmarking, limiting their practical deployment in healthcare. To address these gaps, this research proposes a novel site-aware data partitioning strategy that preserves institutional boundaries, reflecting real-world multi-institutional collaborations and data heterogeneity. Furthermore, an Adaptive Local Differential Privacy (ALDP) mechanism is introduced, dynamically adjusting privacy parameters based on training progression and parameter characteristics, thereby significantly improving the privacy-utility trade-off over traditional fixed-noise approaches. Systematic empirical evaluation across multiple client federations and privacy budgets demonstrated that advanced federated optimisation algorithms, particularly FedProx, could equal or surpass centralised training performance while ensuring rigorous privacy protection. Notably, ALDP achieved up to 80.4% accuracy in a two-client configuration, surpassing fixed-noise Local DP by 5-7 percentage points and demonstrating substantially greater training stability. The comprehensive ablation studies and benchmarking establish quantitative standards for privacy-preserving collaborative medical AI, providing practical guidelines for real-world deployment. This work thereby advances the state-of-the-art in federated learning for medical imaging, establishing both methodological foundations and empirical evidence necessary for future privacy-compliant AI adoption in healthcare.
