TL;DR
This paper introduces a reputation system supporting liquid democracy principles, utilizing a weighted liquid rank algorithm with explicit and implicit ratings, evaluated through social network data and simulation modeling for online marketplaces.
Contribution
It presents a novel reputation system design based on weighted liquid rank, integrating explicit and implicit assessments for human-computer societies.
Findings
System effectively models reputation in social networks
Simulation shows reliable governance support
Algorithm adapts to diverse rating types
Abstract
Problem of reliable democratic governance is critical for survival of any community, and it will be critical for communities powered with Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems upon developments of the latter. Apparently, it will be getting more and more critical because of increasing speeds and scales of electronic communications and decreasing latencies in system responses. In order to address this need, we present design and implementation of a reputation system supporting "liquid democracy" principle. The system is based on "weighted liquid rank" algorithm employing different sorts of explicit and implicit ratings being exchanged by members of the society as well as implicit assessments of of the members based on measures of their activity in the society. The system is evaluated against live social network data with help of simulation modelling for an online marketplace case.
