Abstract

The coronavirus pandemic has overburdened medical institutions, forcing physicians to diagnose and treat their patients remotely. Moreover, COVID-19 has made humans more conscious about their health, resulting in the extensive purchase of IoT-enabled medical devices. The rapid boom in the market worth of the internet of medical things (IoMT) captured cyber attackers' attention. Like health, medical data is also sensitive and worth a lot on the dark web. Despite the fact that the patient's health details have not been protected appropriately, letting the trespassers exploit them. The system administrator is unable to fortify security measures due to the limited storage capacity and computation power of the resource-constrained network devices'. Although various supervised and unsupervised machine learning algorithms have been developed to identify anomalies, the primary undertaking is to explore the swift progressing malicious attacks before they deteriorate the wellness system's integrity. In this paper, a Dew-Cloud based model is designed to enable hierarchical federated learning (HFL). The proposed Dew-Cloud model provides a higher level of data privacy with greater availability of IoMT critical application(s). The hierarchical long-term memory (HLSTM) model is deployed at distributed Dew servers with a backend supported by cloud computing. Data pre-processing feature helps the proposed model achieve high training accuracy (99.31%) with minimum training loss (0.034). The experiment results demonstrate that the proposed HFL-HLSTM model is superior to existing schemes in terms of performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and f-score.

  • Singh et al. introduced a Hierarchical FL model based on Dew-Cloud technology offering enhanced data confidentiality for IoMT, with HLSTM deployed at distributed Dew servers for intrusion detection, and the authors claim it can gain users' trust.

    “Singh et al. [47] introduced a Hierarchical FL (HFL) model based on Dew-Cloud technology, which offers an enhanced level of data confidentiality for Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) applications. In this study, for detecting intrusion in incoming traffic a hierarchical long-term memory (HLSTM) model has also been deployed at distributed Dew servers. The authors claim that the proposed model can”
  • A hierarchical federated learning approach permits aggregation at varying levels, facilitating collaboration among multiple parties.

    “Hence few works concentrated on the development of a hierarchical FL approach that permits aggregation at varying levels, facilitating collaboration among multiple parties [46,47,48].”
  • Hierarchical approaches are effective and relevant for enhancing privacy preservation in FL systems because they provide additional layers of control over data sharing among clients, edge and cloud servers.

    “These approaches are effective and relevant for enhancing privacy preservation in FL systems as they provide additional layers of control over data sharing among clients, edge and cloud servers.”
  • By leveraging hierarchical structures to organize clients and servers, privacy-preserving collaboration is facilitated.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
