Pallavi Manohar, Deepthi Chander, Elisa Celis, Koustuv Dasgupta, Sakyajit Bhattacharya · Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Human Computation and Crowdsourcing · 2014
We propose an online scheduling algorithm for posting crowdsourcing tasks which maximizes a novel metric called task viewership. This metric is computed using stochastic model based on coverage process and it measures the likelihood that a task is viewed by multiple crowd workers, which is correlated to the likelihood that it will be selected and completed.
