Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Analysing Sensitive Data in Medical Cyber-Physical Systems: System Protection and Data Analysis

Starting from the state of the art on AI and ML for medical applications and digital health, an accurate analysis of privacy and security risks associated with the use of the MCPSs is presented. Then, Digital Twins are introduced as a significant technique to enhance decision-making through learning and reasoning of collected on-field real-time data. Moreover, decentralized healthcare data management approaches based on federated learning, tiny machine learning, and blockchain technologies have been introduced to shift control and responsibility of healthcare data management from individual centralized entities to a more distributed structure, preserving privacy and security. Finally, the application of AI-based security monitoring approaches in healthcare is discussed.

In this book, both theoretical and practical approaches are used to allow readers to understand complex topics and concepts easily also through real-life scenarios.
