MedFL-Stress: A Systematic Robustness Evaluation of Federated Brain Tumor Segmentation under Cross-Hospital MRI Appearance Shift

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.09025v1 Announce Type: cross Federated learning enables hospitals to collaboratively train segmentation models without sharing patient data. However, current evaluation protocols report only average performance across clients, masking failures at individual sites. In clinical deployment, a model that fails consistently at one hospital is a real safety risk that a good mean score can hide entirely. We
