A Bayesian Concept Learning Approach to Crowdsourcing
Publication: Research - peer-review › Conference article in Journal
We develop a Bayesian approach to concept learning for crowdsourcing applications. A probabilistic belief over possible concept definitions is maintained and updated according to (noisy) observations from experts, whose behaviors are modeled using discrete types. We propose recommendation techniques, inference methods, and query selection
strategies to assist a user charged with choosing a configuration that satisfies some (partially known) concept. Our model is able to simultaneously learn
the concept definition and the types of the experts. We evaluate our model with simulations, showing that our Bayesian strategies are effective even in large concept spaces with many uninformative experts.
