This paper proposes a novel approach to identify and categorize acute lymphoblastic leukemia that uses explainable artificial intelligence and federated learning to train models across multiple institutions while keeping patient information decentralized and encrypted. The framework trains EfficientNetB3 for the classification of leukemia cells and incorporates explainability techniques to make decisions of the underlying model transparent and interpretable. The framework employs a hierarchical federated learning approach that allows distributed learning across clinical centers, ensuring that sensitive patient data remain localized. Explainability techniques such as saliency maps, occlusion sensitivity, and randomized input sampling for explanation with relevant evaluation scores are integrated in the framework to provide visual and textual explanations of model’s predictions to enhance interpretability. The experiments were carried out on a publicly available dataset consisting of 15,135 microscopic images. The performance of the proposed model was benchmarked against traditional centralized models and classical federated learning techniques. The proposed model demonstrated a 2.5% improvement in accuracy (96.5%) and a 5.4% increase in F1-score (94.4%) compared to baseline models. Hierarchical federated learning reduced communication costs by 15% while maintaining data privacy. The integration of explainable artificial intelligence improved the transparency of model decisions, with a high area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.98 for the classification of leukemia cells. These results suggest that the proposed framework offers a robust solution for intelligent systems for medical diagnostics and can also be extended to other medical imaging tasks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13953,"journal":{"name":"Informatics in Medicine Unlocked","volume":"53 ","pages":"Article 101618"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143103459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, it is crucial to thoroughly examine these biases and develop computational methods that can mitigate biases effectively. This paper critically analyzes this problem by exploring different types of data and algorithmic biases during both pre-processing and post-processing phases to uncover additional, previously unexplored biases in a widely used real-world healthcare dataset of primary care patients. Additionally, effective strategies are proposed to address gender, race, and age biases, ensuring that risk prediction outcomes are equitable and impartial. Through experiments with various machine learning algorithms leveraging the Fairlearn tool, we have identified biases in the dataset, compared the impact of these biases on the prediction performance, and proposed effective strategies to mitigate these biases. Our results demonstrate clear evidence of racial, gender-based, and age-related biases in the healthcare dataset used to guide resource allocation for patients and have profound impact on the prediction performance which leads to unfair outcomes.

In addition, a single drug can bind to multiple targets. In contrast, a single target can also bind to a number of drugs; this complicates the DTI task. Existing silico models often struggle with these challenges, particularly in managing diverse datasets. To address these issues, we introduce the Weighted Average Ensemble Drug–Target Interaction (WAE-DTI) model. Our approach integrates several descriptors and fingerprint representations to enhance prediction accuracy and generalization, namely atom pair fingerprint, Avalon, MACCS, MH, Morgan, RDKit, SEC, topological torsion, and LDP for drug representation, and ESM-2 for target representation. WAE-DTI employs a weighted average ensemble technique to handle diverse datasets effectively.
