Trust Judgment in Knowledge Provenance
Abstract
Knowledge provenance is an approach to determining the validity and origin of Web information by means of modeling and maintaining information sources, information dependencies, and trust structures. This paper explores trust structures in social networks and constructs a trust judgment model for knowledge provenance. Trust judgment includes: trust assessment (to assess trust degree) and trust decision (to make decision of either trusting or distrusting). We reveal a general structure of trust decision, from which (i) the threshold of trust degree to make decision of trusting and (ii) a measure of importance of trust judgment situation are derived. Regarding trust assessment using social network, a major concern is how to aggregate friends' opinions. We propose two new methods: (1) to find most compatible solution to all opinions; (2) to request friends one by one until a set of consistent opinions is obtained. They are close to people's thinking patterns

Knowledge Provenance has been proposed to annotate the reliability of information extracted from web sources based on who created the assertion, how much the creator can be trusted, and what the information depends on.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
