Alexander J. Quinn and Benjamin B. Bederson. 2011. Human computation: a survey and taxonomy of a growing field. In Proceedings of the 2011 annual conference on Human factors in computing systems (CHI '11). ACM, New York, NY, USA, 1403-1412. (gs: 36)

 

        作者Alex Quinn,2002年毕业于华盛顿大学,目前是University of Maryland(UMD)的博士生。这哥们接触过的研究方向也不少,  自06年读博开始,研究过的方向包括crowdsourcing, human computation , digital libraries, information visualization, online trust , and personal information management,总体来说大方向是human computer interaction,他的毕业论文题目是"Crowdsourcing and human computation for decision support"。

 

    本文先介绍了背景,然后讨论了hc的定义,并与相关技术进行区分和比较,之后重点提出了针对hc系统的分类体系,并说明了如何根据所提出的分类体系来寻找新的研究点,全文结构如下:

        1. Introduction
        2. Definition of human computation
        3. Comparison with related ideas
            - crowdsourcing
            - social computing
            - data mining
            - colletive intelligence
        4. Classification dimensions (将近5页,占据全文一半篇幅)
            - motivation
            - quality control
            - aggregation
            - human skill
            - process order
            - task-request cardinality
        5. Opennings for growth
        6. Conclusion
