DeepLinQ proposes a multi-layer blockchain architecture to improve flexibility, accountability, and scalability through on-demand queries, proxy appointment, subgroup signatures, granular access control, and smart contracts in order to support privacy-preserving distributed data sharing. In this data-driven AI era where big data is the prerequisite for training an effective deep learning model, DeepLinQ provides a trusted infrastructure to enable training data collection in a privacy-preserved way. This paper uses healthcare data sharing as an application example to illustrate key properties and design of DeepLinQ. © 2018 IEEE.Blockchain; Consensus protocol; Ledger system; Privacy preserving; Smart contract[SDGs]SDG9Access control; Artificial intelligence; Blockchain; Deep learning; Virtual reality; Application examples; Consensus protocols; Distributed data; ITS architecture; Learning models; Ledger system; Privacy preserving; Training data; Data privacyDeepLinQ: Distributed multi-layer ledgers for privacy-preserving data sharingconference paper10.1109/AIVR.2018.000372-s2.0-85062187518
