Collaborative networking with optimized inter-domain information quality assessment

摘要

A method for implementing inter-domain information quality assessment includes calculating relationships among domains in a knowledge base by identifying features that respectively define each of the domains and identifying domains having correlating features. The method also includes assigning values to pairs of the domains that reflect a closeness of the relationships based upon the correlating features. The method further includes evaluating a reputation of an entity in one domain based on past performance of the entity with respect to another domain where the other domain is determined, via the assigned values, to be related to the domain. The past performance of the entity indicates capabilities of the entity to render accurate predictions about events in a particular domain. The method also includes calculating a value representing the reputation of the entity with respect to the domain based upon the evaluation and assigning the value representing the reputation to the entity.
