Ontology for Healthcare Artificial Intelligence Privacy in Brazil

Using the terminology defined by current legislation, the article outlines a systematic approach to handling hospital data anonymously in preparation for its use in Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in healthcare. The development process consisted of 7 pragmatic steps, including defining scope, selecting knowledge, reviewing important terms, constructing classes that describe designs used in epidemiological studies, machine learning paradigms, types of data and attributes, risks that anonymized data may be exposed to, privacy attacks, techniques to mitigate re-identification, privacy models, and metrics for measuring the effects of anonymization. The article concludes by demonstrating the practical implementation of this ontology in hospital settings for the development and validation of AI.
