Brain tumors such as glioma, meningioma, and pituitary adenoma alter the mechanical behavior of soft brain tissue, yet common diagnostic methods rely on static imaging that cannot capture tumor growth, tissue displacement, or changes in stiffness over time. Deep learning models for this task typically require pooling patient data at one site, which conflicts with privacy rules such as GDPR and HIPAA and limits generalization across institutions, a challenge that is pronounced in neuro oncology given patient diversity.

The paper proposes a Federated Learning framework that integrates an optimized YOLOv8 network for detecting kidney stones in CT images while preserving patient privacy. By enabling multiple medical institutions to collaboratively train a shared model without exchanging patient data, the approach complies with GDPR and HIPAA regulations. Experiments on a distributed CT dataset show a 0.733 mAP@50 and demonstrate fast, real‑time inference suitable for clinical deployment.

arXiv:2606. 23871v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Survival analysis is central to clinical decision-making, yet reliable time-to-event models require large, diverse cohorts that are rarely available at a single institution, while privacy regulations restrict the centralization of patient data.

The paper introduces the first federated learning framework for infant movement analysis, specifically targeting General Movement Assessment using skeletal motion data. It employs Monte Carlo Dropout to estimate predictive uncertainty and proposes an Uncertainty-Aware Federated Averaging (UA‑FedAvg) strategy that weights client updates by this uncertainty. Experiments with three clients show that federated learning outperforms local models and approaches centralized training performance, with UA‑FedAvg generally surpassing standard FedAvg.
