SELECTING TRUSTWORTHY CONTENT USING TAGS

Abstract

Networked portable devices enable their users to easily create and share digital content (e.g., photos, videos). Hitherto, this serendipitous form of sharing has not happened. That may be because, for sharing content, mobile users have no choice but to go through the Internet. Users are thus in need of decentralised mechanisms for browsing location-based content. To realize such mechanisms, the following two questions must be answered first: how to select “relevant content”, by semantically matching user queries, and how to select “quality content” from the clutter generated by a potentially huge number of producers. We explore ways to answer these questions. We propose a combined approach that infers “relevance” by reasoning about the semantics emerging from the tags that users associate to content, and “quality” by running distributed trust models that recognize trustworthy producers.
