A Personalized Framework for Trust Assessment
No full textThe number of computational trust models has been increasing quickly in recent years yet their applications for automating trust evaluation are still limited. The main obstacle is the difficulties in selecting a suitable trust model and adapting it for particular trust modeling requirements, which varies greatly due to the subjectivity of human trust. The Personalized Trust Framework (PTF) presented in this paper aims to address this problem by providing a mechanism for human users to capture their trust evaluation process in order for it to be replicated by computers. In more details, a user can specify how he selects a trust model based on information about the subject whose trustworthiness he needs to evaluate and how that trust model is configured. This trust evaluation process is then automated by the PTF making use of the trust models flexibly plugged into the PTF by the user. By so doing, the PTF enable users reuse and personalize existing trust models to suit their requirements without having to reprogram those models

Adult ♂ holotype (QMS 109020), 2 adult ♂ paratypes (QMS 109021–22), 5 adult ♀ paratypes (QMS 109023–27) from Vietnam, Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province, Con Dao Islands, Con Son Island, leaf litter from So Ray old fruit plantation, 8.691263°N, 106.588949°E, elevation 223 m; on 25th July 2015 (collected by C. Huynh). Diagnosis: Differs from congeners in having dense, long trichomes. Body length over 3.5 mm. Antennomere VI with 24–29 sensilla forming a triangular shape, setiform sensillum located in the anterior position, conical sensillum absent. Labrum asetose smooth, with long slender setae in the anterior margin. Telotarsus with posterior lateral process shorter than half length of the claw, anterior lateral process and lamella process present, anterior setiform process longer than the claw. Description: Colour and trichome patterns dark grey on both sides with contrasting light green medial band on dorsal surface of the body. Body covered with dense, long trichomes. Caudal bundle black-silver (Fig. 11). Holotype male body 3.5 mm; paratypes: males 3.5–3.6 mm, females 3.8–4.5 mm; caudal bundle in both sexes same length (0.9 mm). Head: Each side 8 ommatidia: 4 dorsal, 4 lateral (1 anterior, 2 medial and 1 posterior). Vertex with 2 posterior trichome groups and a large medial gap. Each group with 2 rows: Anterior row curved slightly, on an oblique angle with large trichome sockets in central position, gradually reducing the size at both ends; posterior row with large sockets; a narrow medial space between these rows. Holotype posterior trichome groups with 18 sockets (L) and 19 (R) sockets in anterior rows, posterior rows with 5 sockets both sides (Fig. 12A) (Paratypes showed that variation is common in this species, regardless of sex, ranging from 14–22 sockets in anterior rows, 2–6 in posterior rows). Trichobothria typically thin, sensory hairs with narrow cylindrical funicles; trichobothria equal in socket size forming an isosceles triangle with equal distance ab and bc (Figs.12E and 13A) (trichobothrium a located in posterior position of the head capsule, trichobothrium b in lateral position, trichobothrium c in anterior position). Antennae: Eight antennomeres, 4 sensory cones, typical characteristics of Polyxenidae. Antennomere VI with 24–29 bacilliform sensilla (Figs. 14A, B and C). Holotype with 26 bacilliform sensilla forming a triangular shape (3 thick and 23 thin bacilliform sensilla), setiform sensillum located in anterior position, conical sensillum absent. Antennomere VII with 2 thick bacilliform sensilla (T, Ta and Tp), setiform sensillum (s) located in between these two sensilla (T), conical sensillum (c) located next to Tp (Figs. 15A and B). Clypeo-labrum: Holotype, labrum posterior margin with 10 setae, setae equal in length to labrum width (Setae on the paratypes ranged from 10–11 in both sexes). Labrum surface smooth and asetose, labrum posterior margin has a row of minute backward-pointing setae. Lateral lamella and single broad lamella each side median cleft, 20 slender setae, pair at the base, present on anterior margin of each side of labrum (Fig. 12G) (The number of these anterior slender setae varies among paratypes, ranging from 18–24 on each side. (Fig.13C)). Gnathochilarium: Lateral palp 1.25 times medial palp; 11 conical sensilla on the lateral palp and 22 on the medial palp. Same in holotype and paratypes (Figs. 12F and 13D). Trunk: Body with 10 tergites, 9 pleural projections, and a telson excluding caudal bundle. 13 pairs of legs. Collum (tergite 1) with lateral protuberances 4–6 trichome sockets each side. Other tergites with pair of pleural projections located in anterolateral positions. The tergal trichome socket arrangements typically have 2 broad oval shapes, slightly enlarged in lateral position, with the posterior row straight slightly to the centre, an intermedial gap between these rows (Figs. 12C and 13B). Holotype, collum with 73 sockets each side, lateral protuberance 5 (L) and 4 (R) sockets (Fig.12B) (Paratypes ranged 65–78 sockets in the collum and lateral protuberances 4–6 sockets). Tergite 2 had a similar structural pattern with the posterior row slightly longer and 73 (L) and 71 (R) trichome sockets (Fig.12C), the patterns are similar to characteristic large gaps. Tergite 10 is the exception with these trichome sockets being smaller and denser, a narrow space exists between the lateral rosette trichome sockets and posterior row. Trichome sockets of this tergite are over 100 and the tergite 10 of the holotype was counted 115 (L) and 112 (R) sockets (Fig.12D). Legs: Leg segmentation following Manton (1956). Legs 1 and 2 without trochanter, leg 1 without tarsus 1. Chaetotaxy (setae on leg articles): coxa 1 and 2: 2 setae, coxae 3–13: 2–4 setae; pre-femur, post-femur, tibia with 1 seta, except femur with 1–4 setae, tarsus 1 and 2 with a spine (Fig. 16A). Coxa, pre-femur and femur with biarticulated seta and ridged funicle (Fig.16B). 1–3 smaller biarticulated setae in posterior position of femur, some also on penis (Fig. 16C). Post-femur and tibia distally with setiform seta (Fig. 16D). The spine on tarsus 2 is sharply pointed and twice as long as (Fig.16F) the spine in the antero-sternal position of tarsus 1 (Fig. 16E). There 4 spines in tarsus 1 from the holotype. The posterior edge of the last sternite had 4 setae similar to those present on the coxa and the number of these setae are the same in the holotype and paratypes. Telotarsus-Claw: Claw slender with anterior lateral process and posterior lateral process less than half length of the claw; the anterior setiform process is longer than the claw; lamella process is present (Fig. 16G). Sex organs in the male: A pair of penes on coxae 2 and 2 pairs of coxal glands are located on the 8th–9th coxal plates. Telson: Dorsal ornamental trichome sockets symmetrically arranged on both sides of telson; 25 (L) and 29 (R) sockets of trichomes a on each side of the telson in the holotype (paratypes with 14–29). Trichome a sockets form 2 rows, top row with small sockets, bottom row with larger sockets. Socket of trichome b and 3 large sockets trichomes c with protruding base: c1, c2 and c3, forming triangular shape located in ventroposterior positions in each arrangement. Circular indentation d apparent each side near the exterior side of trichomes c (Fig. 12H). Caudal bundles: Similar to congener (Huynh & Veenstra 2015, 2018c) (Fig. 13E) and is classified as the caudal bundle type I arrangement (Condé & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin, 2008). Caudal trichomes with a series of 2–6 backward hooks. Remarks: Monographis condorensis n. sp. has a longer body, with dense, long trichomes that are dark grey, which differs from the yellowish-brown colour seen in live specimens of other Monographis species. The number of sensilla (24–29) on the antennomere VI also differs from congeners that have fewer sensilla (12–20 (Nguyen Duy- Jacquemin and Condé, 1967)) forming a triangular shape. A row of the slender setae present on lamellae along the anterior margin of the labrum. Morphological and genetic differences indicate that M. condorensis is a new species. An updated diagnosis of genus Monographis is also required based on the morphology of all described species. The arrangement of the sensilla on antennomere VI divides Monographis into 2 groups: 1) forming a crescent shape and 2) triangular shape (Huynh & Veenstra, 2018c). Monographis condorensis n. sp. belongs to group 2 with sensilla arranged in a triangular shape, which is found in M. dongnaiensis, M. queenslandica, M. tamoyoensis and M. yunnanensis (Huynh & Veenstra, 2015). The differences between M. condorensis n. sp. and other species in the group are the presence of setae on lamellae along the anterior margin of labrum, which is a character absent in the group; a large number of sensilla on antennomere VI (>24 sensilla) and the claw structure (the claw is slender in structure with a shorter posterior lateral process, and the anterior setiform process is longer than the claw). All these characteristics make M. condorensis a distinctively new species in Monographis. Etymology: The name of Monographis condorensis refers to the old name of Con Dao Archipelago as Pulo Condore in southeast Vietnam, where this species was first found.Published as part of Huynh, Cuong, 2020, Three new species of penicillate millipedes from the Con Dao Islands of southeast Vietnam (Diplopoda, Lophoproctidae and Polyxenidae), pp. 1-30 in Zootaxa 4759 (1) on pages 14-18, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4759.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/373585
Automating Trust Evaluation for Ensuring Information Quality
No full textModern warfare's situation awareness and operation planning requires analyzing a vast amount of information, ranging broadly from intelligence reports to data from autonomous sensors. Correctly assessing the credibility of such information in a timely manner is as crucial to decision making as being able to obtain the information in the first place. However, manual information quality assessment is time-consuming and laborious, especially considering the amount of information that modern automated knowledge solutions can deliver. In this paper, we present a novel trust framework called the Personalized Trust Framework (PTF), which can assist military analysts to automate their trust evaluation process, and, as a result, significantly lighten the burden of information quality assessment. In other words, it provides a mechanism for end users to capture their trust reasoning in order for it to be automated by computers. In particulars, a user can specify how he selects a trust model based on information about the subject whose trustworthiness he needs to evaluate and how that trust model is configured. This trust evaluation process is then automated by the PTF making use of the trust models that can be flexibly plugged into the PTF by the user. By so doing, the PTF enable users to reuse and to personalize existing trust models to suit their requirements without having to reprogram them. Finally, this paper demonstrates a simple application of the PTF in automated credibility evaluation to ensure information quality

Caudal bundles: Male, single caudal bundle, uniform sized sockets carrying caudal trichomes. Female, two caudal bundles: main dorsal structure, similar to male, 2 laterosternal structures with finer nest trichome sockets (Figs 8A and 8B). (These caudal structures are commonly found in Lophoturus species (Lophoproctidae) (Huynh and Veenstra, 2018b) and Monographis species (Huynh and Veenstra, 2018c) and are classified as a caudal bundle Type I by Condé and Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin (2008)). Remarks: Alloproctoides consonensis n. sp. was similar in appearance, to all species in the genus having the same characteristic sensilla morphology on antennomere VI. There is some variation in the arrangement of sensilla when comparing Alloproctoides species, for example, A. consonensis n. sp. is similar to A. remyi in the number and arrangement of short thin bacilliform sensilla on the antennomere VI. However, A. consonensis has 4 or sometimes 5 short thin bacilliform sensilla, with sockets on an acute angle placed parallel in anterior position to the long thick bacilliform sensillum (Fig. 9B). In contrast, A. remyi has 5 short thin bacilliform sensilla, 4 located in similar positions to those of A. consonensis n. sp. and one sensillum located in ventral position, in relation to the long thick bacilliform sensillum (Ta) (Fig. 9C). The number of sensilla on the gnathochilarium can also be used to differentiate between these two species: In males, A. remyi has 38 sensilla (Fig. 9C), A. consonensis n. sp. has 56–58 sensilla (Fig. 9B), and 18 sensilla in females of both species (Figs. 9B and 9C). Alloproctoides consonensis n. sp. and A. dawydoffi have the same arrangement of the sensilla, but these sensilla are positioned on a slightly different angle. The short thin bacilliform sensilla forming a transverse row in A. dawydoffi (Fig. 9A) compared to A. consonensis n. sp., which has a row of sensilla on an acute angle. If based solely on the arrangement of sensilla, Alloproctoides species from Con Dao Islands may have been identified as A. dawydoffi, a species found only on mainland Vietnam. Etymology: The species is named Alloproctoides consonensis n. sp. as they were found on Con Son Island, Con Dao Archipelago, Vietnam. Additional information about the genus Alloproctoides (Lophoproctidae) : The lectotype and paralectotype of Alloproctoides dawydoffi Attems, 1938, collected from Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa Province, Vietnam, were deposited in the National Museum of Natural History (Paris, France) by Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin and Condé (1967). This was the type specimen of Alloproctoides remyi Marquet and Condé, 1950, from Mauritius. These type specimens have not been found in the museum’s collection records. At present, there is only a single slide mounted adult female, with 13 pairs of legs, a handwritten label including ‘24 St. Denis * Alloproctoides simulans ♀ 13 H TYPE’ and a printed label ‘ Alloproctoides dawydoffi (Attems, 1938) M. Nguyen Duy’. This slide has a whole mount of a female with both antennae missing, embedded in Canada balsam. In this current study, which included collecting trips to Mauritius and Vietnam, specimens of A. dawydoffi (collected from Dinh Mountain (Nui Dinh), Ba Ria–Vung Tau Province, Vietnam) and A. remyi (collected from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden, Pamplemousses District, Mauritius) were plentiful. Many specimens from these two species have been slide mounted, creating a collection of neotypes now deposited in the Queensland Museum along with type specimens of A. consonensis. The purpose of neotypes of A. dawydoffi (QMS 10935 –36 for males, QMS 10937 –38 for females) and A. remyi (QMS 10939 –40 for males, QMS 10941 –42 for females) is to include them in the species records of genus Alloproctoides for future study, along with their genetic information (GenBank accession numbers: A. dawydoffi: MH729070 for 18S and MH737734 for COI; A. remyi: MH729071 for 18S and MH737735 for COI). In the genus Alloproctoides, morphological similarities can make correct species identification a challenge, particularly if using only the number and arrangement of sensilla on antennomere VI to distinguish between them. In the future, species identification will be easier with this new species being designated a species rather than subspecies; the subspecies Alloproctoides dawydoffi sineligulatus needs to be elevated to species level as Alloproctoides sineligulatus.Published as part of Huynh, Cuong, 2020, Three new species of penicillate millipedes from the Con Dao Islands of southeast Vietnam (Diplopoda, Lophoproctidae and Polyxenidae), pp. 1-30 in Zootaxa 4759 (1) on pages 4-10, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4759.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/373585
