A Confidence-Aware Approach for Truth Discovery on Long-Tail Data
Summary: CATD addresses truth discovery under long-tailed source participation, where sparse sources yield unreliable reliability estimates. It incorporates confidence intervals into source-reliability estimation, discounting small sources and improving truth inference over state-of-the-art methods.
