Masking Is Not Enough: Generative Restoration for Multimodal De-Identification in Medical AI
Medical image-text data can expose protected health information (PHI) through both visible image content as well as accompanying text, creating a barrier to privacy-preserving medical AI systems. This risk is especially prominent in multimodal systems, where images, questions, reports, and clinical context may enter training, evaluation, or inference pipelines. Existing medical vision-language benchmarks primarily emphasize task utility, while de-identification methods are often evaluated separately from downstream reasoning. We introduce ClinX, an end-to-end multimodal PHI sanitization framew
Thermo-FL: Thermal-Aware Robust Federated Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models for Edge AI
Federated fine-tuning enables large language models to adapt on edge devices without centralizing private data, but practical deployments must address hardware instability and adversarial update corruption together. Thermally constrained clients may throttle, slow local training, or delay synchronous aggregation, while Byzantine clients and communication-layer adversaries can corrupt the updates used to form the global model. To address these challenges, we present Thermo-FL, a thermal-aware federated LoRA fine-tuning framework that uses device temperature as an active control signal for local
