Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, it is difficult to determine when a commit is valid and whether a participant has a complete assigned task
Participants and organizers usually want to receive some kind of proof of participation, which limits the replacement of many physical competitions with similar online crowdsourced versions

Embodiment Construction

[0011] A submission auditing system for auditing in online crowdsourced competitions to measure participation and prevent fraud is described here. Currently, there are no mechanisms or methods designed to provide auditability for participation in crowdsourcing. The system provides a consistent, procedural / process-driven system (and detects fraud as part of the process) that is not as subjective as other voluntary efforts. Audit capabilities increase the acceptance of crowd efforts. Individual Contributors and Competition Organizers also want to have individual contributors receive credit from project sponsors, their employers, and / or government or other entities for their time commitment. For example, an employer could develop a wellness program that requires contributing employees to perform a range of health-related tasks. In this example, an employee wants to report on that employee's contributions, while an employer might want to monitor and score that contribution to in...

Abstract

Opened audit crowdsourcing competition submissions. Described here is a submission auditing system for conducting audits in online crowdsourcing competitions to measure participation and prevent fraud. Auditability increases acceptance of crowd efforts. Individual Contributors and Competition Organizers also want individual contributors to receive credit for their time investment from the project sponsor, their employer, and / or government or other entities. Employers can encourage employees to volunteer their time to various charitable organizations and can use this system to monitor participation and award rewards based on participation. The Submit Audit System addresses audit participation in crowdsourcing situations by providing workflows for measuring participation in crowdsourcing projects, detecting fraud as part of that measurement, and providing receipts for individual and third-party delivery tracking of participation. question.

Description

technical field [0001] This application relates to submission auditing systems and methods for auditing in online crowdsourcing competitions to measure participation and prevent fraud. Background technique [0002] Organizations often have a lot of work to do, sometimes more than their workforce base can handle. The usual solution is to hire temporary workers to temporarily scale up capacity to handle specific tasks. Tasks can cover a wide range of activities. For example, a website that receives photos may want to review photos for harmful content. Institutions receiving paper submissions may want an initial quality check to ensure that the submission adheres to the specified format. These tasks can focus on events that generate brief busy periods, such as the holiday shopping season. Scaling up in the long term to meet short-term needs is often not efficient for institutions. [0003] Crowdsourcing refers to the utilization of crowds of people who have free or availab...
