An Ontology for Static Knowledge Provenance

Mark S. Fox, Jingwei Huang · 2006

Knowledge Provenance (KP) is proposed to address the problem about how to determine the validity and origin of information/knowledge on the web by means of modeling and maintaining information sources and dependencies as well as trust structures. Four levels of KP are introduced: Static, Dynamic, Uncertain, and Judgmental. In order to give a formal and explicit specification for the fundamental concepts of KP, a static KP ontology is defined in this paper. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
