Crowdsourcing, Attention and Productivity [PDF]

Journal of Information Science, 2008
The tragedy of the digital commons does not prevent the copious voluntary production of content that one witnesses in the web. We show through an analysis of a massive data set from YouTube that the productivity exhibited in crowdsourcing exhibits a strong positive dependence on attention, measured by the number of downloads.

Optimal Crowdsourcing Contests [PDF]

Proceedings of the Twenty-Third Annual ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms, 2012
We study the design and approximation of optimal crowdsourcing contests. Crowdsourcing contests can be modeled as all-pay auctions because entrants must exert effort up-front to enter. Unlike all-pay auctions where a usual design objective would be to maximize revenue, in crowdsourcing contests, the principal only benefits from the submission with the ...
