  • Publication number: 20150262081
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a reputation system. The reputation system includes a statistical model associated with a set of items and a set of dimensions of the items in the reputation system, wherein the statistical model is trained using a positive class and a negative class. The reputation system also includes a scoring apparatus that applies the statistical model to a set of features for each of the items to estimate a set of reputation scores for the items. Finally, the reputation system includes a ranking apparatus that enables use of the set of reputation scores in the reputation system.

  • Patent number: 8935263
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a reputation system. The reputation system includes a scoring apparatus that provides a matrix of reputation scores for a set of items and a set of dimensions of the items in the reputation system, wherein the matrix comprises unknown values for a subset of the reputation scores. The reputation system also includes an inference apparatus that calculates a factorization of the matrix and uses the factorization to update the matrix with a set of inferred values for the set of reputation scores. Finally, the reputation system includes a ranking apparatus that uses the updated matrix to obtain a ranking of the items by one or more of the dimensions.
