4.2 Operation

  1. Back End accesses the MPAI Store and downloads the AIMs required for its operation.
  2. User Registration:
    1. A User wishing to access the Back End sends a Registration Request containing Personal Profile and list of Services they intend to access.
    2. Back End provides the Tokens enabling the requesting User to access the corresponding Services.
  3. Storage of AIH Data:
    1. End User uploads AIH Data.
    2. HBE Data Processing extracts Model Licence from AIH Data and issues Blockchain Licence Request to Blockchain.
    3. Blockchain converts Model Licence to a Smart Contract and responds with a Blockchain Licence Response.
    4. HBE Data Processing attaches Blockchain Licence ID to AIH Data and stores AIH Data in Secure Storage.
  4. De-Identification/Anonymisation of AIH Data:
    1. End User sends a De-ID and Anonym Request.
    2. HBE Data Processing retrieves relevant AIH Data from Secure Storage, pseudo-anonymises it, stores it back to Secure Storage, and responds with a De-ID and Anonym Response.
  5. AIH Data Processing:
    1. User sends AIH Data Process Request.
    2. HBE Data Processing sends a Licence Confirm Request to the Blockchain.
    3. Blockchain responds with a Licence Confirm Response.
    4. HBE Data Processing performs the requested Processing if included in the Licence, stores the Processed AIH Data, and responds with an AIH Data Process Response.
  6. Audit:
    1. End User sends Audit Request.
    2. Auditing retrieves relevant Confirmation Responses and responds with Audit Response.
  7. Federated Learning:
    1. Health Federated Learning sends Federated Learning Request to all Health Front Ends.
    2. Health Front Ends provide the NN Models.
    3. Health Federated Learning develops and uploads the new NN Model to the MPAI Store and sends Federated Learning Response to Health Front Ends.
    4. Front Ends download the new NN Model from the MPAI Store.
