  • Patent number: 12271793
    Abstract: A GxP (good practice) platform is implemented to enable artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to be tracked from creation through training and into production. Deployed algorithms are assigned a GxP chain ID that enables identification of production details associated with respective algorithms. Trained algorithms, each of which are respectively associated with a GxP chain ID, are containerized and can be utilized through an application programing interface (API) to provide a service. The GxP chain ID is linked to production details stored within a database, in which the production details can include information such as data used to train the algorithm, a history version, a date/time stamp when the algorithm was validated, software and hardware on which the algorithm was developed and trained, among other details. Changes to the algorithm can be tracked using an immutable ledger facilitated by the implementation of blockchain.
