All to do with facts and logic.......................hhmmm.

I never said anything.

That was a set-up!

Here, suck on this.

That's really cool...

Being the old cynic, I asked a relatively unknown question and It Indeed told me the average life span of the South American Crab Eating Fox Is 12.7 years.

You have accused me before of setting you up, both times were not knowingly setup, trust me I am not that way inclined, or clever enough.

Too funny!

I input: "What's 'easy pickins' (and 'pickings')'?". It went all around the periphery and never did hit it's mark. Oh well, my answer's close at hand anyway. You know what lawyers say: never ask a question you don't know the answer to.

In psychology and sociology, a trust metric is a measurement of the degree to which one social actor (an individual or a group) trusts another social actor. Trust metrics may be abstracted in a manner that can be implemented on computers, making them of interest for the study and engineering of virtual communities, such as Friendster and LiveJournal.

Trust escapes a simple measurement for several reasons, be it its unclear definition, its complexity, subjectivity or the fact that it is a mental process, unavailable to instruments. There is a strong argumentation against the use of a simplistic metrics to measure trust that validly points to the complexity of the process and the embeddedness of trust that makes it impossible to capture trust in a clear form.

There is no generally agreed set of properties that make a particular metric better than others, as each metric is designed to serve different purposes, provides certain classification scheme for trust metrics. Two groups of trust metrics can be identified:

* Empirical metrics focusing on supporting the capture of values of trust in a reliable and standardised way

* Formal metrics that focus on formalisation leading to the ease of manipulation, processing and reasoning about trust; formal metrics can be further classified depending on their properties. Trust metric - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Wolfram MathWorld: The Web's Most Extensive Mathematics Resource seems to have alot of material for mathematics...

You have managed it yet again, and you didn't say much.

I understand what you have written, and the answer is no, never seen it.

The rest.......about Trust Metrics........right over my head......sorry.....not your fault.

Here's the path to where I landed...

1. Wolfram MathWorld: The Web's Most Extensive Mathematics Resource

2. Foundations of Mathematics -- from Wolfram MathWorld

3. Logic -- from Wolfram MathWorld

4. Fuzzy Logic -- from Wolfram MathWorld

5. Fuzzy Logic -- from Wolfram MathWorld An extension of two-valued logic such that statements need not be true or false, but may have a degree of truth between 0 and 1. Such a system can be extremely useful in designing control logic for real-world systems such as elevators.


In fact, I'd go as far to say that if I did try and wrap my brain around it then I might feel compelled to recite my age in seconds to keep myself from abusing my dog.

You just leave that dog alone......

Yea right ........may have a degree of truth between up and down ?
