Our work contributes to aiding requesters in deploying collaborative tasks in crowdsourcing. We initiate the study of recommending deployment strategies for collaborative tasks to requesters that are consistent with deployment parameters…
An emerging challenge in the online classification of social media data streams is to keep the categories used for classification up-to-date. In this paper, we propose an innovative framework based on an Expert-Machine-Crowd (EMC) triad to…
Modern, state-of-the-art deep learning approaches yield human like performance in numerous object detection and classification tasks. The foundation for their success is the availability of training datasets of substantially high quantity,…
In the last decade, crowdsourcing has become a popular method for conducting quantitative empirical studies in human-machine interaction. The remote work on a given task in crowdworking settings suits the character of typical…
Worker quality control is a crucial aspect of crowdsourcing systems; typically occupying a large fraction of the time and money invested on crowdsourcing. In this work, we devise techniques to generate confidence intervals for worker error…
In this paper, we propose a Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL) framework for task arrangement, which is a critical problem for the success of crowdsourcing platforms. Previous works conduct the personalized recommendation of tasks to workers…
Crowdsourcing platforms enable companies to propose tasks to a large crowd of users. The workers receive a compensation for their work according to the serious of the tasks they managed to accomplish. The evaluation of the quality of…
Crowdsensing, also known as participatory sensing, is a method of data collection that involves gathering information from a large number of common people (or individuals), often using mobile devices or other personal technologies. This…
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the current understanding of crowdsourcing may not be broad enough to capture the diversity of crowd work during disasters, or specific enough to highlight the unique dynamics of information…
In modern large-scale distributed systems, analytics jobs submitted by various users often share similar work, for example scanning and processing the same subset of data. Instead of optimizing jobs independently, which may result in…
Labeling visual data is expensive and time-consuming. Crowdsourcing systems promise to enable highly parallelizable annotations through the participation of monetarily or otherwise motivated workers, but even this approach has its limits.…
Linguistically diverse datasets are critical for training and evaluating robust machine learning systems, but data collection is a costly process that often requires experts. Crowdsourcing the process of paraphrase generation is an…
In mobile crowdsensing, finding the best match between tasks and users is crucial to ensure both the quality and effectiveness of a crowdsensing system. Existing works usually assume a centralized task assignment by the crowdsensing…
We consider the problem of ranking $n$ experts according to their abilities, based on the correctness of their answers to $d$ questions. This is modeled by the so-called crowd-sourcing model, where the answer of expert $i$ on question $k$…
Crowdsourcing has revolutionized the process of knowledge building on the web. Wikipedia and StackOverflow are witness to this uprising development. However, the dynamics behind the process of crowdsourcing in the domain of knowledge…
This paper discusses how crowd and machine classifiers can be efficiently combined to screen items that satisfy a set of predicates. We show that this is a recurring problem in many domains, present machine-human (hybrid) algorithms that…
Harnessing human computation for solving complex problems call spawns the issue of finding the unknown competitive group of solvers. In this paper, we propose an approach called Friendlysourcing to build up teams from social network…
Crowdsourcing with the intelligent agents carrying smart devices is becoming increasingly popular in recent years. It has opened up meeting an extensive list of real life applications such as measuring air pollution level, road traffic…
In multimedia crowdsourcing, the requester's quality requirements and reward decisions will affect the workers' task selection strategies and the quality of their multimedia contributions. In this paper, we present a first study on how the…
Can humans impute missing data with similar proficiency as machines? This is the question we aim to answer in this paper. We present a novel idea of converting observations with missing data in to a survey questionnaire, which is presented…
