Abstract
Reputations of objects are determined by a reputation system using reports from clients identifying the objects. Confidence metrics for the clients are generated using information determined from the reports. Confidence metrics indicate the amounts of confidence in the veracity of the reports. Reputation scores of objects are calculated using the reports from the clients and the confidence metrics for the clients. Confidence metrics and reputation scores are stored in correlation with identifiers for the objects. An object's reputation score is provided to a client in response to a request.
