In the world of high-frequency trading, tick data is worth its weight in gold. Even the slightest information about a stock can result in an investor either making money or losing it. But how do you keep that information from being exploited? Artificial intelligence (AI) has been playing a role in this type of investing for some time now, helping to identify patterns and predict short-term market fluctuations.
The Future of the Market: Has Artificial Intelligence Finally Solved The Problem?
The artificial intelligence (AI) market has grown by leaps and bounds within the last decade. This is especially true in recent years, as AI technology continues to mature and new use cases are discovered for it. AI is being used for everything from virtual assistants to self-driving cars, and it shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. However, despite all this growth, there still exists a fundamental problem that plagues AI developers today: data complexity. With so many different datasets available for training AI models, where do you start? Which ones are best for your specific problem? And what if your dataset isn’t perfect but you still want to train an AI model on it? These questions have left many developers scratching their heads in recent months. But thankfully, we have some answers…
What is the problem with AI?
To most people, AI is an abstract concept that is difficult to put into practice. However, the reason why AI has failed to deliver on its promises in the past is that developers haven’t been able to solve a very specific problem: data complexity. This may seem like an obvious problem, but it is extremely important to understand. The core issue is that AI requires large datasets in order to train models and make accurate predictions — but in many cases, these datasets are difficult to obtain. There are two main reasons why this occurs: First, many datasets aren’t public and can only be accessed by paying a fee or signing a contract with the owner. And second, even if a dataset is accessible, it may be incomplete, inconsistent, or otherwise flawed. This combination of issues has made it difficult for AI developers to use the latest breakthroughs in machine learning and artificial intelligence to solve real-world problems.
Data complexity in artificial intelligence
As we have already discussed, one of the biggest challenges of artificial intelligence is dealing with data complexity. While humans are able to understand and interpret data from a single source, computers often struggle to do so. This is especially true if multiple datasets have been combined together for your use case. Different datasets often have different formats, different values, and different meanings. This means that a model trained on a combination of datasets will be unable to understand or properly interpret data from a single source. When you couple this issue with the fact that many datasets are incomplete or inconsistent, you get a real recipe for disaster. Let’s say that you want to build an AI model to predict customer churn rates. Now, let’s say that you want to create a model that uses a customer’s age, income, and occupation to make this prediction. Unfortunately, income data might be missing for some of your customers, and the format of age and occupation data might not be consistent.
Machine Learning with Big Data
The good news, though, is that all hope is not lost. The latest breakthroughs in machine learning have shown that it is possible to solve the data complexity problem by processing large datasets. Typically, when working with large datasets, you don’t actually need the entire dataset. Instead, you can process the data and create smaller, more manageable datasets. This is called data imputation, and it is a process through which computers create artificial datasets by filling in missing values and correcting inconsistencies. Data imputation helps to solve the issue of missing values by replacing them with generated values. These generated values are based on the rest of the data and are often chosen to be similar to the values that are missing. Data imputation also helps to solve the issue of inconsistent values by either correcting the values or creating new values that are consistent with the rest of the data.
Is There a Better Way?
Yes! This is where blockchain technology comes into play. Since blockchain is decentralized and distributed across a network of computers, it is able to process and analyze large datasets that cannot be managed by a single machine. Considering the fact that machine learning algorithms are extremely computationally intensive, this is a serious game-changer for the industry. You may be wondering how blockchain can process large datasets. Well, this is done through a process called tokenization. Tokenization is the act of converting the data into a set of tokens. Tokenization is helpful because it allows you to convert large amounts of data into smaller amounts. This is particularly useful when working with large amounts of data because it allows you to process that data as if it were small.
How Does Blockchain Help?
Now that you understand how data imputation and tokenization work, it’s time to tie it all together. Essentially, data imputation and tokenization allow you to process large amounts of data. Since the data is already large, it is more likely to be inconsistent and incomplete. However, since you process the data for your machine learning algorithm, you can fix inconsistencies and fill in missing values. This means that you can process datasets that would have previously been too complex for traditional machine learning algorithms to work with. As a result, you can build more accurate AI models and solve real-world problems through artificial intelligence. Plus, you can do all of this without having to pay for the large amounts of data needed to create more accurate models.

Conclusion
Over the last decade, AI has grown by leaps and bounds. However, one of its biggest challenges has been data complexity — that is, the fact that computers struggle to interpret data from multiple sources. Luckily, blockchain technology has come to the rescue and allowed AI models to solve real-world problems with large datasets. This means that AI developers now have access to more data and can create more accurate models. In turn, this allows them to create more useful tools and solve important problems that can improve people’s lives.
