The Method of Inferring Trust in Web-based Social Network using Fuzzy Logic

This paper proposes the approach for inferring trust between users in the web-based social network using fuzzy logic. User would construct social network making direct connection and indirect connection through the several users. If user make connection without any consideration in such social network, it should cause decreasing reliability of whole network. Consequently, this paper suggests the method of inferring trust between users in web-based social network information retrieval system using fuzzy logic for reliable information retrieval and user’s trust deduction.
