  • Patent number: 9489624
    Abstract: A method and system for recommending one or more crowdsourcing platforms from a plurality of crowdsourcing platforms to a requester is disclosed. The method includes receiving values corresponding to one or more parameters of one or more tasks from the requester. In response to the received values recommending the one or more crowdsourcing platforms to the requester based on the values and one or more statistical models maintained for the one or more crowdsourcing platforms, wherein the one or more statistical models corresponds to mathematical models representing performances of the one or more crowdsourcing platforms over a period of time.

  • Patent number: 9152919
    Abstract: A method and system for recommending one or more tasks from a plurality of crowdsourcing tasks to a crowdworker is disclosed. The method includes identifying one or more categories for the plurality of tasks on the plurality of crowdsourcing platforms. In response to the identifying, determining, at a login time, values of one or more utility parameters of the crowdworker corresponding to the one or more categories. After identifying, the method selects the one or more tasks from the plurality of tasks by choosing one or more constraints on the determined values of the one or more utility parameters of the crowdworker. The method then recommends to the crowdworker at the login time, the one or more tasks associated with the crowdworker based on selected one or more tasks.

  • Publication number: 20150007181
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for selecting at least one task template from one or more task templates for uploading crowdsourcing tasks. Values of a pre-defined set of cognitive features associated with one or more task templates are determined. Further, a historical data is obtained based on one or more task features and one or more performance features corresponding to the one or more task templates. A statistical model selects the at least one task template based on the values of the pre-defined set of cognitive features and the historical data.
