Thesis Playground¶
Experience federated knowledge systems in action
Welcome to the interactive playground where you can experience the concepts developed throughout this research. Test federated knowledge systems, explore community AI platforms, and join our growing community of researchers and practitioners.
BLOB-Browser Playground¶
Experience federated knowledge systems firsthand
Test Environment
The BLOB-Browser playground is hosted on a Digital Ocean server and demonstrates real federated knowledge sharing. Users can create groups, invite members, upload data, and interact with community-trained AI models.
Features:
- **Local AI Models**: Trained on community data
- **Group Management**: Create and manage knowledge communities
- **Data Upload**: Contribute knowledge to your community
- **Q&A Interface**: Query community knowledge bases
- **Voting System**: Evaluate and improve content quality
GitHub Repository¶
Explore the open-source codebase and contribute
OATFLAKE Repository
Access the complete source code for OATFLAKE, including setup instructions, documentation, and contribution guidelines. The repository contains everything needed to deploy your own federated knowledge system.
Repository Contents:
- **Python Backend**: Local AI processing with Ollama integration
- **Web Interface**: Community interaction and management tools
- **Setup Scripts**: Easy deployment on various platforms
