A Novel Optimized Perturbation-Based Machine Learning for Preserving Privacy in Medical Data

Abstract

In recent times, providing privacy to the medical dataset has been the biggest issue in medical applications. Since, in hospitals, the patient's data are stored in files, the files must be secured properly. Thus, different machine learning models were developed to overcome data privacy issues. But, those models faced some problems in providing privacy to medical data. Therefore, a novel model named Honey pot-based Modular Neural System (HbMNS) was designed in this paper. Here, the performance of the proposed design is validated with disease classification. Also, the perturbation function and the verification module are incorporated into the designed HbMNS model to provide data privacy. The presented model is implemented in a python environment. Moreover, the system outcomes are estimated before and after fixing the perturbation function. A DoS attack is launched in the system to validate the method. At last, a comparative assessment is made between executed models with other models. From the comparison, it is verified that the presented model achieved better outcomes than others.
