Today’s technological revolution is surrounded by a new set of protocols and innovations that draws the new road forward, Hessian Network comes in to fill the gap between two of these innovations Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence, the latter is a broad term to describe what really goes on it’s much better to use the term Machine Learning to describe it.

Intelligence as a Service

The niche market of machine learning is dominated by the big four, these are the few groups where cutting edge research and algorithms are developed why? Simply because of the data wealth they collect and the computational power they have, Hessian Network comes in to “disrupt” this monopoly using two different tools smart contracts and encryption more specifically “Homomorphic Encryption”.

Homomorphic Encryption is a structure preserving method of encrypting data so as to permit a set of operations on it, mainly addition and multiplication.

Hessian Network uses encryption to preserve the data so as anyone can post it on the platform and anyone can submit models that are also encrypted and safe.

This trinity of processes permits many vertical applications

  • Companies can submit private data to and collect better models for their use
  • Companies can leverage a large talent pool without sacrificing users privacy
  • Users can monetize their time and models
  • Users can provide their data safely and get paid for
  • And many more

This makes it possible to democratize data wealth and computations without putting at risk private data that for some cutting edge companies is worth a lot.

This process is trust less and secured by a groups of smart contracts called the “seers”.

The seers is a group of smart contracts not people that manage this economy in a trust less and transparent way with a unified payment channel “Hessian Network Token” all on the Ethereum Blockchain.

Vision

This project aims to do one thing perfectly fill a present gap it’s future will be determined by it’s community and users and the participants, it’s open and under no way controlled by any entity since everything is operational on the Ethereum Blockchain as a single dapp and accepts contributions from everyone.

We will soon post detailed blog post to shed the light on every part of this system, you are welcome to visit our website where will publish our whitepaper and see our bitcoin-talk.org thread for more information and if you would like to help with a donation.
