Title: College Project on Blockchain
Post by: meghdeepray on January 13, 2016, 08:56:01 AM
Hi, me and my classmates have been looking into doing work in the blockchain domain, specifically using machine learning.

However we are open to working along any lines that might result in a research paper.

Any ideas on what specifically we could look at ? Or any ideas that would help us in our goal ?

Thanks in advance !

What does the blockchain have to do with machine learning? It is a distributed ledger, there is no machine learning.

I guess he meant software or program, whichever way let us keep watching the thread for update.

You haven't mentioned what are you doing in studies?

Let me make it simple for you to try.

If you're creating a blockchain of some kind, try with class evaluations such as tests and other observatory grading systems that are done periodically in every school/college. Record it in blockchain. That's a simple one to implement and you can learn a lot from that.

Well, the blockchain offers unlimited opportunities. Most of them have not been discovered yet. I suggest to make a brain storming session with all your classmates. I am certain of it that you will find a lot of great use cases.

Well,if you are planning to write a research paper ,I recommend using Blockchain just the base to formulate your idea and not be your exact point of the project.You could maybe come up with an algorithm to enhance it which has less time complexity and is much more efficient.Research paper's having algorithmic analysis are always a good start to prove your contribution.

One potential project I randomly thought of involving a learning machine might be for blockchain visualization and trend analysis.

But from OP's post, it's hard to interpolate what they're trying to do.

I'm not sure what op means, and I still need a research about learning machine, it's like a data collection from blockchain?
I found this site http://coinalytics.co/ looks like they used something like learning machine.
