Sailing the Information Ocean with Awareness of Currents: Discovery and Application of Source Dependence
Summary: Frames scalable discovery of dependence (copying/propagation) among web sources to separate propagated falsehoods from independent corroboration and poses key research problems. Presents preliminary detection methods and applications to truth-finding, integration, and provenance. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
