We use insights gained from one of the most influential lines of behavioral research—gift exchange—in an attempt to maximize worker effort in two quite distinct tasks: data entry for a university library and door-to-door fundraising for a research center. In support of the recei...

In this paper, we propose a novel geospatial image and video filtering tool (GIFT) to select the most relevant input images and videos for computer vision applications with geo-tagged mobile videos. GIFT tightly couples mobile media content and their geospatial metadata for fine granularity video manipulation in the spatial and temporal domain and intelligently indexes field of views (FOVs) to ...
