Abstract

Generative models of brain MRI are useful to understand brain conditions, and to enrich scarce and imbalanced neuroimaging data. However, training these models requires large, multi-site training sets, which is challenging. Federated learning (FL) allows for training deep learning models without sharing data. We show that training a 3D conditional latent model federatedly (where data is kept private at each site) performs similarly to centralized training (where all the data have been copied to a single site). We evaluate three metrics: conditional fidelity (how well generated MRIs perform in classification), diversity (how the generated images match the real data distribution, using MultiScale-SSIM), and realism (how close generated images are to real images, using Fréchet Inception Distance). Our results show that federated training is a viable route to develop multi-site generative models of brain MRI.
