AI helped choose the best socially significant projects in Ugra

2023: Using Beorg Smart Vision

Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug Residents - Ugra were able to determine the best social projects. The procedure votes was implemented through the regional platform "YOLKA - Unified Personal Account of the Activist" using crowdfunding mechanics. Making sure that the projects are supported by real people living in Ugra was helped by the Russian technology for identifications the individual at the Beorg Smart Vision base. This was announced artificial intelligence on November 14, 2023 by the company. Beorg (Biorg)

The procedure for selecting the best public projects took 2 months. Beorg Smart Vision technology provided, on average, about a thousand identifications per day. AI integrated to the YLKA personal account to automatically recognize documents to confirm the user's identity. This has reliably protected the system from malicious actions and vote cheats.

We are constantly improving the support system for active Ugra residents. In 2019, they were the first to transfer all competitive procedures online, multiplying their availability. Now, thanks to a technological partnership with Biorg, we have used machine learning technologies to speed up processes and ensure security. We were able to guarantee residents that the projects of activists who became the leaders of the selection are really initiatives necessary for our district, "said Yakov Samokhvalov, director of the Department of Youth Policy, Civil Initiatives and External Relations of Ugra.

The potential risks of the procedure for selecting the best projects using the distribution of virtual capital were that citizens who did not live in Ugra could take part in the voting, which means that the rating of individual initiatives could be artificially overestimated. When registering on the platform, people could send incorrect data altogether. So that only the necessary projects get access to the distribution of capital, they decided to provide only after confirming the identity of the voter.

Thanks to identifications personality technology based on the recognition of digital images of documents, the process of selecting projects has become as transparent as possible for both initiators and residents. The Biorg system prevented access to voting on invalid documents, fraud attempts, when modified, edited or generated images of documents were uploaded to the personal account, etc. In such identification projects, we can also provide an additional level of protection by connecting biometric a data check module. Our cooperation with Ugra is an example of how digitalization helps to develop territories in a targeted way, - said the Ruslan Aligadzhiev general director of Biorg.

Documents certifying the identity of citizens were recognized in the Beorg Smart Vision secure cloud circuit, tested for digital authenticity and relevance - the registration was checked. If the AI was not sure as a result of the check, then a fragment of the image of the document in an impersonal form was transmitted for verification to the operator of the Biorg cloud platform.
