| Label | Description | |||
| AIH Data Classes | The Data Types of AIH Data Objects, by their identifiers. | |||
| AIH-BSO | Behavioural Signal Object: Observable human behavioural activity captured through sensors or digital interaction systems. | |||
| AIH-CRO | Clinical Record Object: Symbolic health information such as diagnoses, observations, procedures, medications, and laboratory results. | |||
| AIH-ECO | ECG Object: Electrical activity of the heart recorded over time. | |||
| AIH-EEO | EEG Object: Electrical activity of the brain recorded over time. | |||
| AIH-EHO | EHR Object: Electronic Health Record of a person. | |||
| AIH-MDI | Medical Imaging Object: Spatially organised visual representations of anatomical or functional structures. | |||
| AIH-NSO | Neurophysiological Signal Object: Biosignals captured from neural or neuro‑cognitive processes. | |||
| AIH-GOM | Omics Object: Molecular‑level biological information derived from assays such as whole‑genome sequencing, whole‑exome sequencing, etc. | |||
| AIH-PSO | Physiological Signal Object: Biosignals captured from physiological processes whose primary structure is a sampled temporal sequence representing time‑series measurements acquired from sensors. | |||
| AIH Data Users | Different profiles of third-party users can affect the licensing of AIH Data Processing. | |||
| – End User | Individual who interacts with the AIH platform, primarily via a personal device, providing personal health data and receiving personalised data. | |||
| – Non-Profit Entity | Entity that is non-profit, e.g., a university. | |||
| – Profit Entity | Entity that is for profit, e.g., a pharmaceutical company. | |||
| – Clinical Entity | Entity that looks after the health of patients. | |||
| – Authorised Entity | Entity that has been authorised by an End User to process some of their AIH Data. | |||
| – Caregiver | Health providers that interact with the AIH-HSP to provide health and care services to specific End Users (nurses, caregivers, etc.) is folded into 2 intermediaries (back end and 3rd party). | |||
| AIH Data Status | In terms of Anonymised, Pseudonymised, Identified. | |||
| – Anonymised | AIH Data may be used if Anonymised. | |||
| – Pseudonymised | AIH Data may be used if Pseudonymised. | |||
| – Identified | AIH Data may be used for Identified End User. | |||
| AIH Data Usage | Types of authorised usage of AIH Data. | |||
| – Unrestricted | The processed data is open to public or semi-public consultation. | |||
| – Pseudonymised | The processed data may be published if End User identity are pseudonymised | |||
| – Anonymised | The processed data may be published if End User identity are anonymised | |||
| – Research | The processed data may be published if the publication is made on a journal to report research results. | |||
| – Patient Use | The processed data may only be used by the patient or by individual authorised by the patient. | |||
| – Health Care | The processed data may only be used by a Clinical Entity for health-related purpose in the Clinical Entity. | |||
| DeID & Anonym Algorithms | DeID&Anonymisation Algorithm. | |||
| – Data Masking | Replaces sensitive data with altered values while preserving the original data structure and format. | |||
| – Data Aggregation | Combines multiple data records into summary values to reduce individual data exposure. | |||
| – Generalisation | Substitutes specific data values with broader categories to reduce identifiability. | |||
| – Perturbation | Introduces controlled modifications or noise into data to prevent accurate inference of original values. | |||
| – Tokenisation | Replaces sensitive data with surrogate tokens, with original values stored in a secure mapping. | |||
| – Hashing | Applies a one‑way cryptographic transformation that prevents recovery of the original data. | |||
| – Removal of Identifiers | Deletes direct identifiers from a dataset to reduce the likelihood of re‑identification. | |||
| – K-Anonymity | Ensures each record is indistinguishable from at least k–1 others based on quasi‑identifiers. | |||
| – L-Diversity | Ensures that multiple distinct sensitive values exist within each k‑anonymous group. | |||
| – Differential Privacy | Provides formal guarantees by limiting the influence of any single data subject through calibrated noise. | |||
| – Synthetic Data Generation | Produces artificial data exhibiting statistical similarity to real data without representing real individuals. | |||
| – Homomorphic Encryption | Enables computation on encrypted data and returns encrypted results without plaintext exposure. | |||
| Risk | Risks classified according to Manchester Protocol. | |||
| – Red | Emergency. Indicates critical situations that require immediate attention. | |||
| – Orange | Very urgent. Patients who need quick attention but whose condition is not immediately life-threatening. | |||
| – Yellow | Urgent. Indicates that the patient needs care, but the condition is not serious. | |||
| – Green | Less urgent. Patients with less severe conditions that can wait a bit longer for care. | |||
| – Blue | Non-urgent. Patients whose conditions are not urgent and can wait for care. | |||
| AIH Data Anomalies | Classes of alert messages caused by anomalies in health | |||
| Definition | Anomaly examples | |||
| – Point Anomaly | Individual data points that deviate significantly from the rest of the dataset | Sudden spikes in heart rate or blood pressure readings. | ||
| – Contextual Anomaly | Anomalous data points that in a specific context – may be normal in another. | Elevated heart rate during sleep versus during exercise. | ||
| – Collective Anomaly | A set of related data points that collectively deviate from the expected pattern. | A series of abnormal ECG readings indicating a potential cardiac event. | ||
| – Medical Condition Anomaly | Abnormalities in patient data due to medical conditions. | Seizures, falls, arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia. | ||
