Sorting of Search Results Based on Data Quality

Abstract

With the rapid development of Web technology, more and more data on the web are considered as the source of information in current society. However, as the qualities of data fetched from different sources are different, it takes a lot of time to search the valuable data from tremendous web information. This paper proposed an approach to evaluate the data quality through integrating all dimensions of data representations. The evaluation of weight is estimated by the scores for data quality provided by users, which results in that the search results sorted by data quality can achieve the requirements of users. This method has been applied in a microbe system.
