> Add "confidence-level" to the Stanbol Enhancement Structure
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: STANBOL-631
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STANBOL-631
>             Project: Stanbol
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Enhancer
>    Affects Versions: 0.9.0-incubating
>            Reporter: Rupert Westenthaler
>
> The "confidence-level" is intended to make it easier for clients to
> decide how to process Enhancements. It would not use a numerical range
> but four distinct values:
> * confident: Meaning that a match is very likely - indicating that
> those annotations typically can be accepted automatically (e.g. If the
> EntityLinking engine finds a single Entity that exactly matches the
> text selected by an text annotation)
> * ambiguous: Meaning that there are several possibilities but is is
> still likely that one of them match (e.g. Paris, Paris (Texas))
> * suggestion: Meaning that the match is not completely certain, but
> there are not several options (e.g. Germans -> Germany)
> * uncertain: Meaning that Entities do match, but the probability of a
> match is rather speculative (e.g. John -> Elton John)
> IMHO using this classification would fit a lot of engines much better
> as the numeric "fise:confidence" property as it does not rise the
> expectation in users that confidence values are on a rational scale
> (e.g. a Enhancement with a confidence of "0.8" is not two times as
> likely as one with "0.4").
