Shriram, Sharad (author)Modern web information systems use machine learning models to provide personalized user services and experiences. However, machine learning models require annotated data for training, and creating annotated data is done through crowdsourcing tasks. The content used in annotation crowdsourcing tasks like medical records and images might contain...master thesis 2019

Inel, O. (author), Aroyo, Lora (author)Event detection is still a difficult task due to the complexity and the ambiguity of such entities. On the one hand, we observe a low inter-annotator agreement among experts when annotating events, disregarding the multitude of existing annotation guidelines and their numerous revisions. On the other hand, event extraction systems have a...conference paper 2019

Bazilinskyy, P. (author), Dodou, D. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)The automotive industry has presented a variety of external human-machine interfaces (eHMIs) for automated vehicles (AVs). However, there appears to be no consensus on which types of eHMIs are clear to vulnerable road users. Here, we present the results of two large crowdsourcing surveys on this topic. In the first survey, we asked...journal article 2019

Qiu, S. (author), Psyllidis, A. (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Houben, G.J.P.M. (author)Knowledge about the organization of the main physical elements (e.g. streets) and objects (e.g. trees) that structure cities is important in the maintenance of city infrastructure and the planning of future urban interventions. In this paper, a novel approach to crowd-mapping urban objects is proposed. Our method capitalizes on strategies for...conference paper 2019

(author), Solomatine, D.P. (author)Data are essential in all areas of geophysics. They are used to better understand and manage systems, either directly or via models. Given the complexity and spatiotemporal variability of geophysical systems (e.g., precipitation), a lack of sufficient data is a perennial problem, which is exacerbated by various drivers, such as climate change...review 2019
