As tagging sys- tems are gaining in popularity, they become more suscepti- ble to tag spam: misleading tags that are generated in or- der to increase the visibility of some resources or simply to confuse users. We introduce a framework for modeling tag- ging systems and user tagging behavior. We also describe a method for ranking documents matching a tag based on taggers’ reliability. Using our framework, we study the be- havior of existing approaches under malicious attacks and the impact of a moderator and our ranking method. %@ 978-1-59593-732-2
