Abstract
Trust management plays an important role in improving the cooperation of agents in multi-agent system. This paper proposes a trust evaluation method based on rough sets theory. The method divides attributes into necessary or unnecessary, calculates attribute weight, and then evaluates trust values by using a decision-making method of multi-attributes. Finally, an example shows that it is efficient to evaluate trust by using the method.
