Security Techniques for Prevention of Rank Manipulation in Social Tagging Services including Robotic Domains

With smartphone distribution becoming common and robotic applications on the rise, social tagging services for various applications including robotic domains have advanced significantly. Though social tagging plays an important role when users are finding the exact information through web search, re...
