Renţea, Ilinca (author)Commonsense knowledge is information that all humans own and use to interpret common situations and react to them accordingly. This kind of information is necessary for the training of artificial intelligence models to reach a performance as close as possible to human performance. Researchers have developed methods that use crowdsourcing to...bachelor thesis 2022

Hu, Andrea (author)Despite the ever-growing advances in artificial intelligence (AI), common sense acquisition and reasoning is still comparingly in their early stages to other fields in AI. To further advance this field, it is necessary to collect large amounts of common sense facts or tacit knowledge to train such AI models. One effective way is to use...bachelor thesis 2021

Oltmans, Rembrandt (author)Data collection by means of crowdsourcing can be costly or produce inaccurate results. Methods have been proposed for solving these problems. However, it remains unclear what methods work best in scenarios with multiple similar objects of interest present in the same image, which is important for training computer vision with applications such...bachelor thesis 2020

Veringa, Sanne (author)Microtask crowdsource workers are negatively influenced, mentally as well as physically, by the repetitive nature of the tasks they perform. Research is ongoing on whether using a gesture-based input technique could mitigate these negative effects. This paper identifies possible ways that using gestures as an alternative input modality could...bachelor thesis 2022

El Hilali, Safouane (author)The health of micro-task crowdsourcing workers, also called crowdworkers, is something that is overlooked in the micro-task crowdsourcing literature. Due to repetitive tasks, they can develop Repetitive Strain Injuries. To look into other ways of navigating Crowdsourcing Work Environments (CSWEs) outside the mouse and keyboard paradigm, we...bachelor thesis 2022

Ajanidisz, Andris (author)Microtask crowdsourcing has grown in popularity in recent years. Microtasking is a form of crowdsourcing in which typically small, simple tasks are distributed over the Internet to a large number of people, also known as workers. Workers are highly susceptible to developing musculoskeletal disorders due to prolonged computer use and the...bachelor thesis 2022

Struijk, Dave (author)People who perform work on micro-task crowdsourcing platforms, often do so using a mouse and/or keyboard for many hours at a time, while alternative modes of input could potentially provide a better experience. This research investigates the feasibility of using webcam-based eye-tracking in a micro-task work environment. We accomplish this by...bachelor thesis 2022

van der Veeken, Just (author)With the growing popularity of conversational interfaces, new use-cases in which conversation may be an effective medium for human-computer interaction are explored. Recent works have shown how conversational interfaces can improve worker engagement in micro-task crowdsourcing and that task performance is comparable to web-based interfaces. This...bachelor thesis 2021

Kalia, Neha (author)The manual process of collecting and labelling data required for machine learning tasks is labour-intensive, expensive, and time consuming. In the past, efforts have been made to crowdsource this data by either offering people monetary incentives, or by using a gamified approach where users contribute to databases as a side-effect of playing an...bachelor thesis 2021

Kleinhans, R.J. (author), Falco, Enzo (author)Over time, urban planning scholars have studied ways to improve communication and collaboration between ‘experts’ and the ‘public’ in planning processes. Social media and the web 2.0 have strongly affected governments’ communication with citizens. The growth of public participation, Geographic Information Systems and geo-visualisation interfaces...book chapter 2022

Draws, T.A. (author), Rieger, A. (author), Inel, O. (author), Gadiraju, Ujwal (author), Tintarev, N. (author)Recent research has demonstrated that cognitive biases such as the confirmation bias or the anchoring effect can negatively affect the quality of crowdsourced data. In practice, however, such biases go unnoticed unless specifically assessed or controlled for. Task requesters need to ensure that task workflow and design choices do not trigger...conference paper 2021
