The FactCheck framework is designed to address the issue of conflicting data on the Web by providing a systematic approach to detect and resolve such discrepancies. It encompasses the entire fact comparison process, including data acquisition, comparison, presentation of results, and advanced analysis features. As a pioneering research initiative of our research group, FactCheck presents several challenging aspects and opportunities in its development and implementation.
This project aims to find a solution for a user interface which allows an end user visiting a web page to understand the comparison results on conflicting information as well as to provide user feedback to the FactCheck system behaviour. The interface should be realized as an interactive chatbot. The startig point for the project is a prototypically implemented browser extension (IdaFix) which illustrates the functionality as well as the internal system API to be used.
