Meteor Games: Dbrain TOKEN REVIEW

Introduction

Artificial Intelligence (AI) happens to be the next big thing. AI is all about data. Datasets used for machine learning are still labeled by hand, which requires a lot of effort. This creates a lot of friction: labeling quality is not guaranteed, and the initial source data is not secured. Dbrain allows people to work together in secure, seamless, integrated processes for buying, designing, and building AI apps, from start to finish.

What is dbrain ?

Dbrain is an open blockchain platform that links crowdworkers and data scientists enabling them to transform raw data into real-world AI solutions. Crowdworkers do simple tasks of data labelling and validation, and are paid instantly in cryptocurrency for their work. Data scientists use the resulting datasets to train Neural Networks (NN) and build AI apps. Businesses use existing AI solutions or specify new ones to serve their particular needs. Dbrain automates AI production and data workflow by providing efficient tools to all parties, including a web application, a Telegram bot, and a mobile app.

Blockchain technology helps us meet many of AI’s current challenges. Using the blockchain, we can confidently manage high-quality data labelling, security concerns, intellectual property rights, and international micropayments. Using existing commercial computation infrastructure allows us to build an affordable, scalable toolkit for developing, integrating, and deploying AI apps.

We use blockchain protocols and an in-house cryptocurrency to power the AI production cycle. The SPOCK protocol validates data label quality, ensuring the most accurate datasets possible. The PICARD protocol ensures the security of confidential data and automatically manages relations and fair revenue distribution between stakeholders. Dbraincoin (DBR) is an ERC-20 cryptocurrency to exchange for work, datasets, and AI app usage.

What is dbraincoin ?

Dbraincoin (DBR) is implemented as a standard ERC20 token. The total number of Dbraincoins in existence is fixed. We use our coins as an internal currency that participants use to pay and receive for work, data and AI application usage on the platform.

Product

1. Web application

The Dbrain web application integrated with Ethereum (DApp) provides an intuitive tool for data labeling and validation tasks for crowdworkers. The complex user interface allows crowdworkers to perform advanced tasks, such as image labeling for classification and regression, object annotation with bounding boxes and segmentation masks.

2. Telegram bot

The Telegram Bot is ideal for simple image labeling and validation tasks. Anyone with the internet connected device can label data and get paid instantly with Dbraincoins. Smartphones are more accessible and widespread in developing countries than laptops, while internet penetration is high, which gives us an edge in accessing workers in those regions.

3. Mobile application

Mobile apps are a great tool to create new data — video, audio, photos, acceleration, GPS coordinates and touch input. Our app will allow any platform user to become a data provider and earn additional Dbraincoins.

4. Competitive advantages

There are a few large existing crowdwork platforms that are mostly used for

AI-related tasks (e.g., Amazon Mechanical Turk, Yandex.Toloka). However, they fail to meet most of AI developers’ needs . Developers need to find raw data and upload tasks or validate data themselves. Then developers need access to AI compute infrastructure in order to train models and build AI Apps. Finally, developers need to deploy AI Apps somewhere to make them available to business clients. The Dbrain platform covers all stages of the AI production cycle and offers a comprehensive solution.
