FSCP: A Platform for Crowdsourcing Formal Science
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the Formal Science Crowdsourcing Platform (FSCP). FSCP represents claims as interpreted predicate logic formulas. FSCP-based crowdsourcing systems focus a crowd of scholars on examining a family of claims to separate the true claims from false ones. Scholars examine a claim through participating in a substantiation game. Substantiation games are built on top of Hintikka’s Game Theoretical Semantics (GTS). Furthermore, FSCP collects the defense and attack strategies on claims. We also present an approach to evaluate scholars that we believe is new. We also present two approaches to estimate the truth likelihood of claims. We report on our experience with using an earlier version of FSCP in class.

User Requirements of a Crowdsourcing Platform for researchers: Findings from a Series of Focus Groups
While the concept of crowdsourcing has generated significant interest in the information systems (IS) research community, the application of crowdsourcing for research itself remains limited. This limitation in the adoption of crowdsourcing by researchers is partly explained by the lack of a crowdsourcing platform that is suitable for their needs. This paper presents the findings of a focus gro...
متن کاملCrowdsourcing of Computational Problem Solving
Computational problems can be specified by logical statements interpreted in a computable model (a.k.a. claims). Semantic Games (SGs) of claims, a well-researched area, provide novel answers to crowdsourcing challenges yet with several limitations. Most notably that SGs provide a binary interaction mechanism that requires both participants to hold contradictory positions on the underlying claim...
متن کاملExploring the Global Adoption of Citizen Science
In recent years there has been a growing interest toward the application of Web-based citizen science platforms. Such platforms use crowdsourcing techniques to support scientific advancements, and in several cases, have lead to new scientific discoveries which were not originally considered. Our work explores the highly successful Web-based citizen science platform, Zooniverse, a crowdsourcing ...
متن کاملCollusion-Resistant Evaluation of Side-Choosing Games
Very OLD. We describe a proof of concept implementation of a CAG-based crowdsourcing platform for formally-specified computational problems, called the Scientific Community Game (SCG). SCG uses a modular construct, called a lab, to group related claims and to solve labs incrementally through lab relations, which are themselves captured as labs. SCG has the flavor of a ”Wikipedia for Computation...
متن کاملPrivacy-Preserving Verifiable Incentive Mechanism for Crowdsourcing Market Applications
Crowd sensing, as a new paradigm that leverages pervasive smartphones to efficiently collect and upload sensing data, recently has been intensively explored. Incentive mechanisms with the truthfulness are proposed to attract extensive users to participate so as to achieve good service quality, enabling numerous novel applications. Although these mechanisms are so promising, there still exist ma...
