How to crowdsource tasks truthfully without sacrificing utility: Online incentive mechanisms with budget constraint
2014
IEEE INFOCOM 2014 - IEEE Conference on Computer Communications
To achieve good service quality for a MCS application, incentive mechanisms are necessary to attract more user participation. ...
Most of existing mechanisms apply only for the offline scenario where all users' information are known a priori. ...
An Application Example: As illustrated in Fig. 1 , we consider the scenario where the crowdsourcer expects to obtain the sensing data covering all roads in a RoI. ...

Incentive Mechanisms for Time Window Dependent Tasks in Mobile Crowdsensing
2015
IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications
In this paper, we focus on exploring truthful incentive mechanisms for a novel and practical scenario where the tasks are time window dependent, and the platform has strong requirement of data integrity ...
In mobile crowdsensing applications, incentive mechanisms are necessary to stimulate more potential smartphone users and to achieve good service quality. ...
In [27] , Feng et al. presented a truthful auction, which was formulated as winning bids determination problem, for collaborative sensing in mobile crowdsourcing. ...

StarBorn: Towards making in‐situ land cover data generation fun with a location‐based game
2019
Transactions on GIS
We conclude that LBGs are suitable tools for generating cost-efficient in-situ land cover classifications. ...
Results show that data are concentrated around users' daily life spaces, agreement among users is highest for urban and industry land cover, and user-generated land cover classifications exhibit high agreement ...
Given the surge of interest in crowdsourcing land cover data, we set out to investigate the potential of an LBG with strong game play and narrative elements as a source of ground truth data for land cover ...

Recursive Fact-Finding: A Streaming Approach to Truth Estimation in Crowdsourcing Applications
2013
2013 IEEE 33rd International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems
This paper presents a streaming approach to solve the truth estimation problem in crowdsourcing applications. ...
Moreover, the timescales of crowdsourcing campaigns of interest can be as small as a few hours or days, which does not offer enough history for a reputation system to converge. ...

Incentives for Truthful Evaluations
[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
We consider crowdsourcing problems where the users are asked to provide evaluations for items; the user evaluations are then used directly, or aggregated into a consensus value. ...
We propose incentive schemes that are truthful and cheap: truthful as the optimal user behavior consists in providing accurate evaluations, and cheap because the truthfulness is achieved with little overhead ...
Related Work Providing incentives to human agents to return truthful responses is one of the central challenges for crowdsourcing algorithms and applications [8] . ...
