The growth of the commodification of music in the present age has made royalties allocation in an efficient, straight-forward manner to the stakeholders, in general, a complex issue. To address these challenges, this paper introduces RoyaltyChain, a new framework powered by predictive analytics and blockchain. Using factors like streaming data, social media statistics, and geographical factors, Random Forest Regression is employed to predict royalties in a big data environment, with a blockchain-backed system ensuring secure and transparent distribution. Here Ethereum blockchain-based smart contracts are designed in Remix IDE and the Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is incorporated to handle data storage cost issues in blockchain. The performance evaluation shows an increase in the overall efficiency in predicting outcomes and the high scalability of our system in comparison with the related techniques with respect to accuracy, scalability, etc. RoyaltyChain provides a scalable framework to establish efficient and fair distribution of money from the consumption of music in this increasingly complex world.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are powerful machine learning prediction models on graph-structured data. However, GNNs lack rigorous uncertainty estimates, limiting their reliable deployment in settings where the cost of errors is significant. We propose conformalized GNN (CF-GNN), extending conformal prediction (CP) to graph-based models for guaranteed uncertainty estimates. Given an entity in the graph, CF-GNN produces a prediction set/interval that provably contains the true label with pre-defined coverage probability (e.g. 90%). We establish a permutation invariance condition that enables the validity of CP on graph data and provide an exact characterization of the test-time coverage. Besides valid coverage, it is crucial to reduce the prediction set size/interval length for practical use. We observe a key connection between non-conformity scores and network structures, which motivates us to develop a topology-aware output correction model that learns to update the prediction and produces more efficient prediction sets/intervals. Extensive experiments show that CF-GNN achieves any pre-defined target marginal coverage while significantly reducing the prediction set/interval size by up to 74% over the baselines. It also empirically achieves satisfactory conditional coverage over various raw and network features.
