Federated learning (FL) enables privacy-preserving model training across distributed Electronic Health Records (EHRs), but its deployment remains limited by data-view heterogeneity, where institutions maintain incompatible local schemas. Most existing methods address this by enforcing flat, aligned
This paper presents Adaptive Parameter Optimisation (APO), a novel framework for optimising shared models across multiple clinical tasks, addressing the challenges of balancing strict parameter sharing—often leading to task conflicts—and soft parameter sharing, which may limit effective cross-task i…
Federated Learning (FL) involves a server aggregating local models from clients to compute a global model. However, this process can struggle to position the global model in low-loss regions of the parameter space for all clients, resulting in subpar convergence and inequitable performance across cl…
Estimation of individualized treatment effects (ITE) from observational studies is a fundamental problem in causal inference and holds significant importance across domains, including healthcare. However, limited observational datasets pose challenges in reliable ITE estimation as data have to be sp…
The proliferation of decentralised electronic healthcare records (EHRs) across medical institutions requires innovative federated learning strategies for collaborative data analysis and global model training, prioritising data privacy. A prevalent issue during decentralised model training is the dat…
Observational studies have recently received significant attention from the machine learning community due to the increasingly available non-experimental observational data and the limitations of the experimental studies, such as considerable cost, impracticality, small and less representative sampl…
Evaluating the performance of graph neural networks (GNNs) is an essential task for practical GNN model deployment and serving, as deployed GNNs face significant performance uncertainty when inferring on unseen and unlabeled test graphs, due to mismatched training-test graph distributions. In this p…
