Re: Credweb this week + refs

Hi Daniel and all,
I am a PhD student at the Open University and author of that paper. At Co-Inform we are a EU-funded project and I was very happy to discover and join the CredWeb group in October when at that conference someone introduced me.

In that paper we were comparing available rankings of sources and articles, and we are experimenting with an experimental model to merge these rankings. We take from a set of ClaimReview published (https://www.datacommons.org/factcheck/download) the fields appearance and firstAppearance (https://schema.org/Claim) which contain a URL and we propagate the ranking of the fact-checker to the sources, combining them with other rankings such as Web of Trust, NewsGuard, OpenSources, Media Bias/Fact Check.

Unfortunately, I’ve not been able to join the recent group meetings but I’d like to jump back in the discussions.

Cheers,
Martino Mensio

Dear Sandro and all,
My apologies for not being able to join yesterday.
I have found this reference that quantifies what they call credibility, and how different assessors assign values to some story: https://coinform.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/TTO2019_credibility.pdf.

(The whole CO-INOFRM project has common points to what we are looking at…).
This conference (perhaps some of you is aware) also has many papers of interest, here is the link to the procs.: https://truthandtrustonline.com/proceedings/.


Cheers
D
