Topic: ”Understanding dynamic performance variations across multiple crowdsourcing platforms”
Abstract:
Recent times have witnessed an unprecedented number of crowdsourcing platforms that leverage the collective intelligence of a largely distributed internet workforce to solve a wide range of tasks. Crowd workers (unlike in a typical organization), exhibit varying work patterns, expertise, and performance with little or no control that can be imposed on them. Requesters (e.g. enterprises) also exhibit diverse requirements in terms of the size, complexity and timings of the tasks, as well as SLAs (performance expectations). Clearly, the heterogeneity makes the choice of a platform suited for a given task difficult for the user. Very little work, however, has been done in terms of understanding these variations and leveraging the information for better selection of platforms. This talk will describe the insights drawn from a series of experiments and benchmarking exercises conducted on couple of crowdsourcing platforms. A description of a system called CrowdUtility, which leverages these insights to recommend a right platform that suits the QoS requirements of a user will also be given.
