<![CDATA[This study introduces a trust centric machine learning framework designed to improve decision making reliability and security in decentralized digital service ecosystems. Traditional machine learning models often focus on accuracy and efficiency but fail to address the challenges of trust and security in decentralized environments. In contrast, the proposed framework integrates dynamic trust indicators and employs Federated Learning (FL) to ensure privacy while enhancing decision making performance. The framework also incorporates Zero Knowledge Proofp based Verifiable Machine Learning (ZKP-VML), which ensures transparency and security without compromising sensitive data. Through continuous real time trust assessments, the framework adapts to changing conditions, improving the accuracy and reliability of decisions in environments where participants may not fully trust each other. The application of this framework in autonomous vehicles and IoT networks demonstrated its ability to make robust, secure decisions, even in complex and uncertain scenarios. The frameworkâs ability to incorporate both trust and security into its decision making processes sets it apart from traditional models, which typically do not address the trustworthiness of data or participants. This research highlights the importance of integrating trust and security into machine learning models, particularly in decentralized systems, and offers a robust solution to trust management challenges. However, challenges such as scalability and computational efficiency remain, and future work should focus on enhancing these aspects, along with exploring the framework's applicability in other decentralized domains like finance or supply chain management. The integration of privacy preserving technologies and improvements in adversarial robustness are also potential areas for future research.]]>
