Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này

Learn how to use AI and blockchain to build decentralized intelligent applications (DIApps) that overcome real-world challengesKey FeaturesUnderstand the fundamental concepts for converging artificial intelligence and blockchainApply your learnings to build apps using machine learning with Ethereum, IPFS, and MoiBitGet well-versed with the AI-blockchain ecosystem to develop your own DIAppsBook Description

AI and blockchain are two emerging technologies catalyzing the pace of enterprise innovation. With this book, you’ll understand both technologies and converge them to solve real-world challenges.

This AI blockchain book is divided into three sections. The first section covers the fundamentals of blockchain, AI, and affiliated technologies, where you’ll learn to differentiate between the various implementations of blockchains and AI with the help of examples. The second section takes you through domain-specific applications of AI and blockchain. You’ll understand the basics of decentralized databases and file systems and connect the dots between AI and blockchain before exploring products and solutions that use them together. You’ll then discover applications of AI techniques in crypto trading. In the third section, you’ll be introduced to the DIApp design pattern and compare it with the DApp design pattern. The book also highlights unique aspects of SDLC (software development lifecycle) when building a DIApp, shows you how to implement a sample contact tracing application, and delves into the future of AI with blockchain.

By the end of this book, you’ll have developed the skills you need to converge AI and blockchain technologies to build smart solutions using the DIApp design pattern.

What you will learnGet well-versed in blockchain basics and AI methodologiesUnderstand the significance of data collection and cleaning in AI modelingDiscover the application of analytics in cryptocurrency tradingGet to grips with open, permissioned, and private blockchainsExplore the DIApp design pattern and its merit in digital solutionsFind out how LSTM and ARIMA can be applied in crypto tradingUse the DIApp design pattern to build a sample contact tracing applicationGet started with building your own DIApps across various domainsWho this book is for

This book is for blockchain and AI architects, developers, data scientists, data engineers, and evangelists who want to harness the power of artificial intelligence in blockchain applications. If you are looking for a blend of theoretical and practical use cases to understand how to implement smart cognitive insights into blockchain solutions, this book is what you need! Knowledge of machine learning and blockchain concepts is required.
