Application of Homomorphic Encryption in Medical ImagingFrancis Dutil, Alexandre See, Lisa Di Jorio et al.
In this technical report, we explore the use of homomorphic encryption (HE) in the context of training and predicting with deep learning (DL) models to deliver strict \textit{Privacy by Design} services, and to enforce a zero-trust model of data governance. First, we show how HE can be used to make predictions over medical images while preventing unauthorized secondary use of data, and detail our results on a disease classification task with OCT images. Then, we demonstrate that HE can be used to secure the training of DL models through federated learning, and report some experiments using 3D chest CT-Scans for a nodule detection task.

Adversarially Learned Mixture ModelAndrew Jesson, Cécile Low-Kam, Tanya Nair et al.
The Adversarially Learned Mixture Model (AMM) is a generative model for unsupervised or semi-supervised data clustering. The AMM is the first adversarially optimized method to model the conditional dependence between inferred continuous and categorical latent variables. Experiments on the MNIST and SVHN datasets show that the AMM allows for semantic separation of complex data when little or no labeled data is available. The AMM achieves a state-of-the-art unsupervised clustering error rate of 2.86% on the MNIST dataset. A semi-supervised extension of the AMM yields competitive results on the SVHN dataset.
