This is a hot research topic with important implications for various application areas. The main innovative contributions of the work are:-new bilattice-based model for trust and distrust, allowing for ignorance and inconsistency-proposals for various propagation and aggregation operators, including the analysis of mathematical properties-Evaluation of these operators on real data, including a discussion on the data sets and their characteristics.-A novel approach for identifying controversial items in a recommender system-An analysis on the utility of including distrust in recommender systems-Various approaches for trust based recommendations (a.o. base on collaborative filtering), an in depth experimental analysis, and proposal for a hybrid approach-Analysis of various user types in recommender systems to optimize bootstrapping of cold start users.
