Federated Learning (FL) in healthcare faces challenges like data heterogeneity and unreliable contributions.
A new study introduces a peer-driven reputation mechanism for federated healthcare to improve model aggregation.
The proposed approach integrates decentralized peer feedback and clustering-based noise handling, ensuring privacy of sensitive information.
Experimental evaluations show that the method successfully addresses data heterogeneity and reputation deficit in FL, outperforming systems without a reputation mechanism.
