Edge-computing unit, medical analytics cloud-computing network, and method for performing statistical analysis

A medical analytics cloud-computing network comprising:

• an analytics engine within the cloud-computing network, wherein the analytics engine is configured to:
• send a data processing task to be received by at least one edge-computing unit at an edge of the cloud computing network, wherein the data processing task is a distributed computational task of a statistical analysis of a locally stored biosignal data to extract an at least one feature of the locally stored biosignal data, wherein the at least one feature is such that the locally stored biosignal data or an origin of the locally stored biosignal cannot be reconstructed based on the at least one feature,
• receive at least one extracted feature originating from the at least one edge-computing unit performing the data processing task, and
• perform the statistical analysis on the basis of the at least one extracted feature, and
• the at least one edge-computing unit at the edge of the cloud computing network, wherein each of the at least one edge-computing unit is configured to:
• receive the data processing task originating from the analytics engine,
• access the locally stored biosignal data,
• perform the data processing task on the locally stored biosignal data to extract the at least one feature, and
• return the extracted the at least one extracted feature to be received by the analytics engine.
