Abstract

In this paper, an implementation method of an information credibility calculation system is introduced. This system objectively calculates information credibility by comparing target information with various information resources on World Wide Web and sensor data. Information credibility is calculated by the degree of objectivity. This paper shows the feasibility of the method by experiments.
