Crowd (soft) control
2012
Proceedings of the Twelfth Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems & Applications - HotMobile '12
Preserved Fulltext
We present Crowd Soft Control (CSC), an approach to exert limited control over the temporal and spatial movements of mobile users by leveraging the built-in incentives of location-based gaming and social ...
After outlining the case for Crowd Soft Control, we present an initial prototype of our ideas and discuss potential benefits and costs in the context of two case studies. ...
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We would like to thank our shepherd, Vishnu Navda, and the anonymous reviewers for their detailed and helpful feedback. ...

Moreover, the underperformance gap of crowd compared with institutions widens with risky and small loans, suggesting that crowd lack the expertise to assess the risks or the incentive to expend resources ...
Exploiting the randomized assignment of originated loans to institutions and the crowd in the online peer-to-business platform of FundingCircle, we find that crowd underperform institutions in screening ...
This strategy considers a role for the non-traditional and soft information, to predict default and goes beyond the ability of lenders to use listing information (observables). ...
