HantaWatch: Federated Learning for Hantavirus Genomic Surveillance

Short summary

HantaWatch is a federated learning framework enabling labs and surveillance sites to collaboratively train sequence-based models for Hantavirus genomic surveillance without sharing raw data. It integrates k-mer feature extraction, source-aware federated client construction, adaptive DU-FedProx optimization, and prediction-only triage. Experiments show it balances predictive performance, false-negative risk, and update stability across binary and multi-class tasks including high-risk screening and outbreak prediction.

  • Federated learning framework enables collaborative Hantavirus surveillance without raw data sharing
  • Combines k-mer features, source-aware clients, and adaptive DU-FedProx optimization
  • Outputs risk scores, confidence estimates, and ranked expert-review priorities for decision support

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
