  • Big Data and AI for safe medical innovation (Horizon 2020).

    Big Data and artificial intelligence (AI) are paving new ways for improvements in healthcare. However, they also pose risks with regard to confidential clinical data stored in critical healthcare ICT infrastructure. The EU-funded FeatureCloud project introduces a breakthrough system with concept-integrated security to reduce vulnerability to cybercrime and enable secure cross-border collaborative data mining efforts. The concept will be applied to a software toolkit that uses the world's first method with privacy built into the architecture. Key features of the method are that no confidential data will be transmitted through any communication channels and that data will not be stored in only one central location. FeatureCloud will integrate decentralized machine learning and blockchain technology to securely apply next-generation AI technologies to medical innovation.

    Participating: Prof. Dr. Dominik Heider
