Abstract

The paper proposes a SoundMeGood trust model being able to establish a preliminary trust level among unknown users in a distributed environment. Computation of preliminary level of trust is based on similarities among users based on various components of their profiles. As a metric used for similarity computation has been used and experimentally evaluated DTW* algorithm.
