Integrating Conflicting Data: The Role of Source Dependence
Summary: Truth discovery from conflicting multi-source data; dependence-aware modeling to detect copying and boost accuracy. Bayesian iterative algorithm infers inter-source dependence, separates true values from dependent false ones; extends with source accuracy and value similarity; scalable to many sources.
