Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The traditional molecular-based identification (TMID) technique of new infections from genome sequences (GSs) has made significant contributions so far. However, due to the sensitive nature of the medical data, the TMID technique of transferring the patient's data to the central machine or server may create severe privacy and security issues. In recent years, the progression of deep federated learning (DFL) and its remarkable success in many domains has guided as a potential solution in this field. Therefore, we proposed a dependable and privacy-preserving DFL-based identification model of new infections from GSs. The unique contributions include automatic effective feature selection, which is best suited for identifying new infections, designing a dependable and privacy-preserving DFL-based LeNet model, and evaluating real-world data. To this end, a comprehensive experimental performance evaluation has been conducted. Our proposed model has an overall accuracy of 99.12% after independently and identically distributing the dataset among six clients. Moreover, the proposed model has a precision of 98.23%, recall of 98.04%, f1-score of 96.24%, Cohen's kappa of 83.94%, and ROC AUC of 98.24% for the same configuration, which is a noticeable improvement when compared to the other benchmark models. The proposed dependable model, along with empirical results, is encouraging enough to recognize as an alternative for identifying new infections from other virus strains by ensuring proper privacy and security of patients' data.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
