Research Abstract |
This research have developed/analyzed the following three mechanisms for crowdsourced problem solving. (1) We have devised a cooperative task allocation mechanism based on group division to avoid the unequal allocation of workers to tasks. (2) We have showed that reward distribution based on the Shapley value, which is extensively studied in the game theory, may cause the undersupply of the work force. (3) Votes are often used to maintain the solution quality. We have developed an m votes to win mechanism with sequential participation to to improve the quality of collective decision making with the reduction of the cost for voting.
