Idea
A secure federated data fusion framework improving diagnostic accuracy and client reliability for healthcare providers and researchers.
Research Paper
Core Innovation
This paper introduces MCP as an interoperability layer enabling secure, schema-driven multi-modal data fusion across distributed healthcare agents. It uniquely combines multi-modal feature alignment, differential privacy-based secure aggregation, and energy-aware scheduling to enhance federated learning performance and client retention. This approach surpasses existing FL frameworks by addressing data heterogeneity, privacy, and resource constraints simultaneously.

Research Paper Overview
Secure Multi-Modal Data Fusion in Federated Digital Health Systems via MCP
Summary
This paper presents a novel framework using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable secure, interoperable multi-modal data fusion in federated digital health systems. It integrates clinical imaging, electronic medical records, and wearable IoT data through multi-modal feature alignment, secure aggregation with differential privacy, and energy-aware scheduling to reduce client dropouts. Experimental results show improved diagnostic accuracy, reduced dropout rates, and balanced privacy-utility trade-offs, demonstrating a scalable and trustworthy approach for federated healthcare infrastructures.
