2009 Ninth IEEE International Conference on Data Mining
To Trust or Not to Trust? Predicting Online Trusts Using Trust Antecedent Framework
Miami, Florida
December 06-December 09
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3895-2
This paper analyzes the trustor and trustee factors that lead to inter-personal trust using a well studied Trust Antecedent framework in management science \cite{mayer}. To apply these factors to trust ranking problem in online rating systems, we derive features that correspond to each factor and develop different trust ranking models. The advantage of this approach is that features relevant to trust can be systematically derived so as to achieve good prediction accuracy. Through a series of experiments on real data from Epinions, we show that even a simple model using the derived features yields good accuracy and outperforms MoleTrust, a trust propagation based model. SVM classifiers using these features also show improvements.
