Problems solved by technology

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for effectively distributing tasks with preferences in a competitive crowdsourcing system to solve the problem of maximum value distribution
Secondly, for the same value task crowdsourcing model and different value task crowdsourcing model, a task allocation mechanism is proposed to solve the problem of maximizing the total value of tasks, and it is proved that this method has computational efficiency, workload feasibility, preference authenticity and Properties of Constant Factor Approximation Ratio
Compared with the currently existing incentive methods, the present invention solves the problem of incentive mechanism design for competitive and inclined requesters in the crowdsourcing system

Embodiment Construction

[0068] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0069] A task crowdsourcing process with preferences such as figure 1 Shown: The crowdsourcing platform publishes the information of crowdsourcing workers to all task requesters. Each task requester returns a request to the platform containing a preference set, a set of crowdsourced workers that are compatible with that task requester. The crowdsourcing platform computes an assignment, which is a set of task and crowdworker pairs, and notifies both the task requester and the crowdworker. Crowdsourcing workers execute the assigned tasks and return the execution results to the crowdsourcing platform. Finally, crowdsourcing platforms provide services to task requesters.

[0070] The crowdsourcing task allocation method with preference in the present invention includes a crowdsourcing model for tasks of the same value. The model includes a cr...

Abstract

The invention discloses a crowdsourcing task allocation method considering preferences. The objective of the invention is to solve a value maximized allocation problem. Two kinds of crowdsourcing models, namely, a same-value task crowdsourcing model and a different-value task crowdsourcing model, are provided, and the two models both consider competitive relationships between requesters and the preferences of the task requesters to crowdsourcing workers; and a matching-based task allocation mechanism is put forwards respectively for the same-value task crowdsourcing model and the different-value task crowdsourcing model. With the method adopted, a task total value maximized allocation problem can be solved. The task allocation method provided by the invention is advantageous in calculation effectiveness, work load feasibility, preference authenticity and constant factor approximation ratio.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for assigning tasks in a crowdsourcing system, and belongs to the intersecting field of the Internet and algorithmic game theory. Background technique [0002] Crowdsourcing, by integrating mobile smartphones and unknown users on the Internet to complete tasks that are difficult for machines, has become the main implementation mechanism for the generation of many Internet resources. At present, crowdsourcing has been widely used in information retrieval, artificial intelligence, video analysis, knowledge mining, smart city, human-computer interaction learning, image quality assessment and other fields. [0003] The task allocation mechanism in the crowdsourcing system is very important. Existing research often combines task allocation and user incentives to form an incentive mechanism in the crowdsourcing system. At present, many studies have focused on designing such an incentive mechanism to encourage workers to par...
