Multi-Level Two-Sided Rating Protocol Design for Service Exchange Contest Dilemma in Crowdsensing

Jianfeng Lu, Shasha Yang, Zhao Zhang, Jianmin Han, Hao Peng, Zhaolong Hu, Tian Wang
2019 IEEE Access  
By quantifying necessary and sufficient conditions for a sustainable multi-level two-sided rating protocol, we formulate the problem of selecting the optimal design parameters to maximize the social utility  ...  among all sustainable multi-level two-sided rating protocols, and design a lowcomplexity algorithm to select optimal design parameters via a two-stage procedure in an alternate manner.  ...  In our previous works [29] , a rating protocol integrating the pricing and the reputation schemes was proposed to address the crowdsourcing contest dilemma.  ...

Using crowdsourced online experiments to study context-dependency of behavior

Marc Keuschnigg, Felix Bader, Johannes Bracher
2016 Social Science Research  
We argue that quasi-experimental variation of the characteristics people bring to the experimental situation is the key potential of crowdsourced online designs.  ...  We explore contextdependency using session-level variation in participants' geographical location, regional affluence, and local social capital.  ...  We are grateful to Fabian Thiel for excellent research assistance.  ...
