Uncertainty in Knowledge Provenance
نویسندگان
چکیده
Knowledge Provenance is an approach to determining the origin and validity of knowledge/information on the web by means of modeling and maintaining information sources and dependencies, as well as trust structures. This paper constructs an uncertainty-oriented Knowledge Provenance model to address the provenance problem with uncertain truth values and uncertain trust relations by using information theory and probability theory. This proposed model could be used for both people and web applications to determine the validity of web information in a world where information is uncertain.

Uncertainty Propagation and Trust Building in Visual Analytics
Visual analytics combines human and machine abilities to generate new knowledge from data. Within this process, uncertainty often plays an important role in hindering the sensemaking process and analysis tasks. On the machine side, uncertainty builds up from the data source level to the visual output. On the human side, these uncertainties often result in “lack of knowledge or trust” or “overtr...
متن کاملProvenance and Uncertainty
PROVENANCE AND UNCERTAINTY Sudeepa Roy Susan B. Davidson Sanjeev Khanna Data provenance, a record of the origin and transformation of data, explains how output data is derived from input data. This dissertation focuses on exploring the connection between provenance and uncertainty in two main directions: (1) how a succinct representation of provenance can help infer uncertainty in the input or ...
متن کاملProvenance for Nondeterministic Order-Aware Queries
Data transformations that involve (partial) ordering, and consolidate data in presence of uncertainty, are common in the context of various applications. The complexity of such transformations, in addition to the possible presence of meta-data, call for provenance support. We introduce, for the first time, a framework that accounts for the conjunction of these needs. To this end, we enrich the ...
متن کاملExperiences in using provenance to optimize the parallel execution of scientific workflows steered by users
The main advantages from using Scientific Workflow Management Systems to manage a large-scale scientific experiment are their automatic parallel execution and the improvement of result analysis through provenance data. Provenance data becomes especially useful for scientists when it is clearly associated to their domain data. In our experience, provenance data also reveals important optimizatio...
متن کاملRecording Provenance on Probabilistic Databases
Tracking data provenance (or lineage) has become increasingly important in many large-scale applications. Till now, a few methods have been proposed to record data provenance. However, most of them mainly focus on deterministic databases except Trio style lineage that aims at probabilistic databases. Processing provenance upon probabilistic database is even challenging because of the exponentia...
