Stud Health Technol Inform. 2021 May 27:281:504-505. doi: 10.3233/SHTI210216.

Abstract

This paper presents a scoping review of federated learning for the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and demonstrates the limited amount of research work in an area which has potential to improve patient care. Federated Learning and IoMT - as standalone technologies - have already proved to be highly disruptive but there is a need for further research to apply federated learning to the IoMT.

Keywords: Federated Learning; Internet of Medical Things; IoMT.
