چکیده

In crowdsourcing, a range task is a type of creation task where only free answers belonging to the numeric domain are accepted/possible. In this paper, we present the median-onagreement (ma) techniques based on statistical and consensusbased mechanisms for determining the result of range tasks. The ma techniques are characterized by i) the distinction between the group of workers that agree (i.e., workers in the consensus) on the task result from the group that disagree, and ii) the calculation of the final task answer through a median-based mechanism where only answers of workers in the consensus are considered.

Selection and aggregation techniques for crowdsourced semantic annotation task

Crowdsourcing is an accessible and cost-effective alternative to traditional methods of collecting and annotating data. The application of crowdsourcing to simple tasks has been well investigated. However, complex tasks like semantic annotation transfer require workers to take simultaneous decisions on chunk segmentation and labeling while acquiring on-the-go domainspecific knowledge. The incre...

Enabling Physical Crowdsourcing On-the-Go with Context-Sensitive Notifications

This paper introduces the idea of sending timely notifications to potential helpers to complete small tasks onthe-go with minimal effort to them and maximal benefit to the system. We present two on-the-go crowdsourcing systems: Libero for package delivery, and CrowdFound for finding lost items. To encourage contributions, we introduce notification techniques that present task opportunities when...
