Selecting the Best Solvers: Toward Community Based Crowdsourcing for Disaster Management

Abstract

Crowd sourcing is a new paradigm of service provision. Current commercial crowd sourcing platforms rarely consider the interaction between task takers, which is extremely required in the disaster management scenario. In this paper, we designed a framework for community based crowd sourcing, i.e., task takers are from an existing community or will easily form a new community. A size-specified community creation method using multiple social contexts is also proposed.
