Abstract:
This paper is concerned with defining contributors’ selection for crowd-sourced task execution. Based on reputation measures that we introduce, a general mathematical model of controlled crowd-sourcing is presented. The model offers easy to manage, flexible selection of predefined trustworthy contributors based on their prior performance in similar activities. A simple choice of model parameters within speci-fied range to suit user’s intended quality of the crowd in-volvement is introduced. The abstraction of the problem that we present can be tailored for applications in different do-mains and crowd-sourced activities. Further extensions of presented concepts conclude the paper.
