Abstract
Training deep learning models for medical imaging requires access to large volumes of sensitive patient data. To this end, the models are generally trained on centralized, de-identified databases that are hard to collect because of privacy requirements. Federated learning proposes an alternative approach, in which a coalition of hospitals collaboratively trains a central model without exchanging any clinical data. This paper explores the combination of federated learning with U-Net models, and applies it to the task of image segmentation of the heart. A variant of federated learning referred to as federated equal-chances that improves segmentation performance on unbalanced datasets is introduced as well.
