Decentralized network Ethereum is based on the blockchain technology. Ethereum provides an opportunity for developers to implement their own programs called smart contracts and execute them inside the blockchain. A decentralize application is usually a union of several smart contracts that can communicate with each other. The purpose of the research is to use semantic analysis methods to explore decentralized applications and predict their categories. In our research we intend to validate the hypothesis about a correlation between smart contract methods’ names and their categories In our work we collected a set of data about decentralized applications and identified the most significant metrics and parameters that characterise these applications, and implemented a classification algorithm that can predict their categories.
