Abstract :
As an important nature of subjective trust, uncertainty should be preserved and exhibited in trust definition, representation and inference. In view of the problems in existing mechanisms based on random mathematics and fuzzy set theory, this paper designs a trust inference mechanism based on cloud model theory. We define trust and trust level in form of cloud. Then we propose new measure for formalized reasoning of trust.
