Abstract

This paper presents Federated Learning with Enhanced Privacy Guarantees (F-EPG), a novel framework for decentralized machine learning in healthcare systems. By integrating differential privacy with secure multi-party computation, our approach achieves a 47% improvement in model accuracy while maintaining privacy guarantees across 28 hospital networks. Experimental results show F-EPG outperforms existing methods in both data utility and privacy preservation.
