How AI and blockchain help data scientists work on data they cannot see, explained by Francesco Gadaleta of fitchain.io

in ai •  7 years ago 


Francesco Gadaleta introduces  Fitchain, a decentralized machine learning platform that combines  blockchain technology and AI to solve the data manipulation problem in restrictive environments such as healthcare or financial institutions.

Francesco Gadaleta is the founder of Fitchain.io and senior advisor to Abe AI.  Fitchain is a platform that officially started in October 2017, which  allows data scientists to write machine learning models on data they  cannot see and access due to restrictions imposed in healthcare or  financial environments. In the Fitchain platform, there are two actors,  the data owner and the data scientist. They both run the Fitchain POD,  which orchestrates the relationship between these two sides. The idea  behind Fitchain is summarized in the thesis “do not move the data, move  the model – bring the model where the data is stored.” The Fitchain team has also coined a  new term called “proof of train” – a way to guarantee that the model is  truly trained at the organization, and that it becomes traceable on the  blockchain. To develop the complex technological aspects of the  platform, Fitchain has partnered up with BigChainDB, the project we have recently featured on Crypto Radio. 

Roadmap:

Fitchain team is currently validating  the assumptions and increasing the security of the platform. In the  next few months, they will extend the portfolio of machine learning  libraries and are planning to move from a B2B product towards a Fitchain  for consumers.  By June 2018 they plan to start the  Internet of PODs. They will also design the Fitchain token – FitCoin,  which will be a utility token to enable operating on the Fitchain  platform.
