The Effects of Sequence and Delay on Crowd Work [PDF]
Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2015 A common approach in crowdsourcing is to break large tasks into small microtasks so that they can be parallelized across many crowd workers and so that redundant work can be more easily compared for quality control. In practice, this can result in the microtasks being presented out of their natural order and often introduces delays between individual ...

Non-local first-order modelling of crowd dynamics: a multidimensional framework with applications [PDF]
, 2010 In this work a physical modelling framework is presented, describing the intelligent, non-local, and anisotropic behaviour of pedestrians. Its phenomenological basics and constitutive elements are detailed, and a qualitative analysis is provided.

The Crowd Work Accessibility Problem
Proceedings of the 14th International Web for All Conference, 2017 Crowd work is an increasingly prevalent and important kind of work. Because of its flexible nature, crowd work may offer benefits for people with disabilities. Unfortunately, people with disabilities currently lack access to much of this work because the tasks that are posted are often inaccessible.

The walking behaviour of pedestrian social groups and its impact on crowd dynamics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Human crowd motion is mainly driven by self-organized processes based on local interactions among pedestrians. While most studies of crowd behaviour consider only interactions among isolated individuals, it turns out that up to 70% of people in a crowd ...

Detection of Salient Crowd Motion Based on Repulsive Force Network and Direction Entropy
Entropy, 2019 This paper proposes a method for salient crowd motion detection based on direction entropy and a repulsive force network. This work focuses on how to effectively detect salient regions in crowd movement through calculating the crowd vector field and ...

Crowdsourcing approaches for knowledge organization systems: Crowd collaboration or crowd work? [PDF]
Proceedings of the Association for Information Science and Technology, 2016 ABSTRACT Development of Internet technologies has empowered ordinary users to create, contribute, share and connect with other members of the community. As users learn to exploit the potential of networked communications, they participate in a process, which facilitates a shift from individual to collective contributions and ...
