    Credit management model for agricultural products public brand in the block chain

    • 摘要: 针对品牌农产品供应链中信息不透明、虚假评论泛滥及品牌信用缺失等问题,该研究提出一种基于区块链与虚拟合作社的信用管理方案。首先,通过分析农产品生产社会关系网络,构建虚拟合作社信任管理模型;设计区块链环境下的信用管理全流程,引入密度峰值聚类(density peak clustering,DPC)算法建立多维度评论筛选机制,有效识别并剔除恶意评价,同时保留真实群体偏好。其次,利用拓扑势理论构建双层信用量化体系,在社区内部依据节点影响力量化个体信用,在社区之间利用拓扑势场评估群体信用的辐射效应,从而实现微观个体与宏观群体信用的协同度量。最后,结合虚拟合作社的运行特点,设计适用于农产品公用品牌的一种信用加权混合共识算法(credit-weighted hybrid consensus algorithm,CWHC)。结果表明,该信用模型对虚假信息反映敏感,策略恶意节点信用提升速度慢,在恶意节点团体达50%时,仍有56%以上的识别率;千兆局域网环境下,CWHC共识算法在1异常节点的4共识节点网络中,共识延时保持稳定;交易数量60时,通信量是实用拜占庭容错机制25%。该基于区块链与虚拟合作社的信用管理方案,有效应对了品牌农产品供应链中的信用管理难题,为农产品品牌信用管理提供了一条可行的新路径。

       

      Abstract: Agricultural product brands can severely dominate their market competitiveness. However, some challenges still remained in the supply chain of the agricultural products, such as the information opacity, rampant fake reviews, and less credibility of the brands. In this article, a credit management model was proposed using blockchain and virtual cooperatives. A transparent and trustworthy credit management system was established for the agricultural product brands in order to enhance the market credibility and competitiveness of the agricultural product brands. There was also a social relationship network in agricultural products. The results showed that the branded agricultural products followed a "government regulation - brand operator-led - multi-entity collaboration" model, thus involving multiple stakeholders, such as the farmers and cooperatives. A virtual cooperative trust management model was constructed under blockchain using this network. A density peak clustering algorithm was introduced to filter out the false information. A dual-layer credit quantification system was constructed using topological potential theory. A credit-weighted mixed consensus algorithm was designed using a blockchain structure with traceability information and credit management. The Density Peak Clustering (DPC) algorithm was determined to filter the false information. The cluster centers were used to calculate the local density of the data points and their distance to high-density points. The cluster centers of the agricultural products were accurately located using strategy graphs, effectively identifying malicious reviews even with a few parameters. Extreme content and repetitive expressions were characterized to aggregate and then removed by the algorithm. The true preferences of the real group were preserved for the authenticity and reliability of the review data. The dual-layer credit quantification was constructed after credit calculation using topological potential theory. The influence of the nodes was measured within the community using factors such as the interaction frequency and quality with the other nodes. Thereby, the individual credit was quantified with the higher influence nodes as the higher credit. Between communities, the radiation of group credit was evaluated using the topological potential field, visually demonstrating the degree of the mutual influence of the credit between different communities. The coordinates were measured on the micro and macro group credit. The credit-weighted mixed consensus algorithm was designed with the virtual cooperatives to consider the factors, such as the node credit levels and computing power, to allocate weights. The nodes with high credit and strong computing capabilities were defined as having a greater influence in the consensus, thereby improving the consensus efficiency and security. The credit data was stored in a blockchain credit block after consensus, indicating the immutability and traceability. According to the needs for the agricultural product quality, safety traceability, and credit management, a single-tree multi-type block structure of the transaction storage was designed to accommodate both traceability information and credit management in conjunction with the storage of the Hyperledger Fabric, fully meeting the actual business requirements. Experiment results show that this credit model was sensitive to the false information, while the credit of the malicious nodes was improved slowly. Once the proportion of the malicious nodes reached 50%, the recognition rate remained above 56%. In a gigabit local area network, the CWHC consensus algorithm maintained the stable consensus delay in a 4-consensus-node network with 1 abnormal node. In the 60 transaction records, the communication volume is 25% of the practical Byzantine fault-tolerant mechanism. This credit management with the blockchain and virtual cooperatives was performed best in the supply chain of the branded agricultural products. The finding can also provide a feasible path for the brand credit management of the agricultural products.
