Truth Inference in Spatial Crowdsourcing

Based on the techniques used, the algorithms can be classified in: 1) Direct Computation. Do not model workers or tasks. E.g. Majority Voting, Median 2) Optimization

  • Develop a function that captures the relation between tasks and

workers.

  • Optimize

3) Iterative methods

Related Work

  • Truth discovery methods in SC can be classified [12]

into:

○ Iterative (e.g. Truthfinder [7]) ○ Optimization-based (e.g. MalVoteCount [13]) ○ Probabilistic graphical models (e.g. Latent Truth Model [23])

although overlaps are possible

  • Several methods ([19,20,21]) do not consider mobile

data

  • Other methods (TSE [15]) do not consider events

changing over time

Contributions

  • Present dynamic graphical model that describes

dependencies between hidden and observed variables.

  • Present a Bayesian estimation method based on this

model

  • Enhance the model by incorporating the event

model that explicitly describes correlations, and develop an algorithm that uses the Kalman filter to take advantage of the event model

  • Simulations and real-world data show the

performance (F1 measure) of the methods

Conclusion

  • Method has wide variety of applications by

considering a default state

  • Can be generalized to more labels
  • Incorporating the event model allows the method to

depend less on the observed data and enhances the performance.
