Abstract: The disclosed embodiments illustrate methods and systems for formulating a policy for crowdsourcing of tasks. The method includes receiving a set of incoming tasks and a range associated with a task attribute corresponding to each task in the set of incoming tasks. Thereafter, an execution of a first policy is simulated over a period of time to determine one or more first performance metrics, associated with the execution of the first policy. The first policy is based on a first value selected from the range. Further, the first value is updated to generate a second value based on the one or more first performance metrics, wherein the second value is deterministic of the policy for crowdsourcing of the set of incoming tasks over the period of time.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments illustrate methods and systems for crowdsourcing a task. The method comprises presenting the task to one or more crowdworkers based on their reputation scores and a redundancy degree associated with the task. The task comprises one or more sub-tasks. A plurality of responses to the task are received from the one or more crowdworkers. Each response further comprises one or more sub-responses each of which in turn corresponds to a response for a sub-task of the one or more sub-tasks. A first set of sub-tasks is identified from the one or more sub-tasks based on a first set of similar sub-responses received for the first set of sub-tasks from the plurality of responses. A first set of crowdworkers from the one or more crowdworkers who provided the first set of similar sub-responses for the first set of sub-tasks are remunerated.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relates to a crowdsourcing directory system. The crowdsourcing directory system is configured for identifying and comparing one or more of a plurality of crowdsourcing platforms based on a plurality of attributes associated with each of the plurality of crowdsourcing platforms. The crowdsourcing directory system then recommends a set of crowdsourcing platforms from the one or more crowdsourcing platforms based on values of the plurality of attributes. The crowdsourcing directory system also maintains a repository of information pertaining to the plurality of crowdsourcing platforms. In an embodiment, the repository may be updated by implementing software adaptors configured to extract various information pertaining to the plurality of crowdsourcing platforms.
