Federated Learning

Why Federated Learning in Healthcare?

Federated learning represents a machine learning technique designed to train models on decentralized data, eliminating the necessity of central data collection and aggregation. This approach retains data on originating devices or servers while utilizing aggregated gradients from numerous devices to train the model...

AI in Prostate Cancer

Why AI in Prostate Cancer?

In recent times, magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has become a prevalent tool for the early detection of clinically significant Prostate Cancer (csPCa). While assessing the aggressiveness of prostate cancer predominantly relies on the traditional Gleason grading system introduced in 1974, FLUTE aims to simplify...
