点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Trust management is an emerging field offering critical challenges on evaluating the quality and trustworthiness of objects, services and raters. Thus it requires the development of novel techniques and solutions to address these challenges both conceptually and practically. This project will develop innovative techniques to infer trust in complex social networks, detect bias in trust ratings and its dependencies with social relations. They can greatly contribute to breakthrough techniques enabling trust-oriented social network analysis and more objective trust management systems that can be transferred to the Australian IT industry to promote the trustworthiness of Web services and reduce monetary loss.
