Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI)-based studies have been carried out recently for the early detection of COVID-19. The goal is to prevent the spread of the disease and the number of fatal cases. In AI-based COVID-19 diagnostic studies, the integrity of the data is critical to obtain reliable results. In this paper, we propose a Blockchain-based framework called AIBLOCK, to offer the data integrity required for applications such as Industry 4.0, healthcare, and online banking. In addition, the proposed framework is integrated with Google Cloud Platform (GCP)-Cloud Functions, a serverless computing platform that automatically manages resources by offering dynamic scalability. The performance of five different machine learning models is evaluated and compared in terms of Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F-Score and Area under the curve (AUC). The experimental results show that decision trees gives the best results in terms of accuracy (98.4%). Further, it has been identified that utilization of Blockchain technology can increase the load on memory.
