Trust evaluation assesses trust relationships between entities and facilitates decision-making. Machine Learning (ML) shows great potential for trust evaluation owing to its learning capabilities. In recent years, Graph Neural Networks…
DNN models are becoming increasingly larger to achieve unprecedented accuracy, and the accompanying increased computation and memory requirements necessitate the employment of massive clusters and elaborate parallelization strategies to…
In this paper, we are concerned with trust modeling for agents in networked computing systems. As trust is a subjective notion that is invisible, implicit and uncertain in nature, many attempts have been made to model trust with aid of…
As deep neural networks (DNNs) are increasingly used in safety-critical applications, there is a growing concern for their reliability. Even highly trained, high-performant networks are not 100% accurate. However, it is very difficult to…
Handling trust is one of the core requirements for facilitating effective interaction between the human and the AI agent. Thus, any decision-making framework designed to work with humans must possess the ability to estimate and leverage…
Current large language models reason in isolation. Although it is common to sample multiple reasoning paths in parallel, these trajectories do not interact, and often fail in the same redundant ways. We introduce LACE, a framework that…
The paper begins by exploring the rationality of ethical trust as a foundational concept. This involves distinguishing between trust and trustworthiness and delving into scenarios where trust is both rational and moral. It lays the…
