RISE-MICCAI announces event plans


By Andrea Lara, Public Outreach

We are happy to announce the successful conclusion of the "Fair Federated AI" (#FIFAI) 2024 Summer School. This edition attracted more than 110 global attendees from Nepal to Chile, with several from Africa. This summer school covered Federated Learning and Fairness in AI for medical imaging and concluded with a Kaggle Competition. In this first edition of FIFAI, eight teams competed in a binary classification challenge using federated learning to classify chest X-ray images with imbalanced label distribution. The competition highlighted the important issue of fairness in AI within decentralized data environments.

Congratulations to our winners:

  • 1st place: Rahmat Izwan Herozafor,
  • 2nd place: Jaeyoung Cho,
  • 3rd place: Prabin Bohara.

Their winning solutions are now available on the FIFAI GitHub
