Questions and Answers
| Questions | Answers |
|---|---|
| We see a trend in using synthesis data for research purposes (FDA is also trying to use that strategy for ML model evaluation). With these being said, is there still a reason for XNAT federation? | (Answered live in session) |
| Are you considering the integration of data privacy layers on the top or is the assumption that all data will be already anonymised? | (Answered live in session) |
| Have you looked at SAML as a federated authentication service? | (Answered live in session) |
| I would look at https://www.i2b2.org/work/shrine.html as they have also solved many of the issues being brought up. It's more basic only returning the # of patients found for a cohort |
