Hierarchical Model of Trust in Contexts
trust, multi-context trust, trust modeling, agent reasoning
Trust may be an important part of agent's reasoning when resources, services or
information are sought inside a multiagent system. Decision which agent to
contact when more acceptable possibilities is naturally done with respect to
expected outcome of forthcoming cooperation, so the partner with the best quality
should be probably contacted first. Typically for one agent or device a trust may
be evaluated in many contexts. Particular kinds of trust need not to be
independent and trust in one aspect could influence trust in another aspect. We
present a model of trusts as a multilevel computational graph where trusts are
computed in conjunction on some trusts at preceding levels.
