A Secure Social Network Question and Answer System
Keywords:
Question and Answer systems, Social networks, Bloom filter, Common interestAbstract
Now-a-days internet acts as a huge source of information whereas the Question and Answer (Q&A) systems are widely used for information and knowledge sharing. The efficiency of the Question and Answer systems can be calculated depending on the factors like how correct the questions are answered within a short waiting time. For the user to be presented with correct answers for the questions asked, the questions are to be forwarded to those persons who are willing and capable to answer. This can be procured with the help of Question and Answer system with in a social network. This Secure Social Question and Answer system can be performed based on properties like common interest and mutual trust friendship among the people in the social network. The above two properties will be considered in identifying the appropriate answerer for a question. Security of the Question and Answer system is achieved with the use of bloom filter to protect user identities for the effective exchange of information.
