Mitigating Observation Biases in Crowdsourced Label Aggregation

2023-02-25 · Ryosuke Ueda, Koh Takeuchi, Hisashi Kashima

Crowdsourcing has been widely used to efficiently obtain labeled datasets for supervised learning from large numbers of human resources at low cost. However, one of the technical challenges in obtaining high-quality results from crowdsourcing is dealing with the variability and bias caused by the fact that it is humans execute the work, and various studies have addressed this issue to improve the quality by integrating redundantly collected responses. In this study, we focus on the observation bias in crowdsourcing. Variations in the frequency of worker responses and the complexity of tasks occur, which may affect the aggregation results when they are correlated with the quality of the responses. We also propose statistical aggregation methods for crowdsourcing responses that are combined with an observational data bias removal method used in causal inference. Through experiments using both synthetic and real datasets with/without artificially injected spam and colluding workers, we verify that the proposed method improves the aggregation accuracy in the presence of strong observation biases and robustness to both spam and colluding workers.

Optimal Fair Aggregation of Crowdsourced Noisy Labels using Demographic Parity Constraints

2026-01-30 · Gabriel Singer, Samuel Gruffaz, Olivier Vo Van, Nicolas Vayatis 외 arxiv

As acquiring reliable ground-truth labels is usually costly, or infeasible, crowdsourcing and aggregation of noisy human annotations is the typical resort. Aggregating subjective labels, though, may amplify individual bi…

Aggregation of pairwise comparisons with reduction of biases

2019-06-09 · Nadezhda Bugakova, Valentina Fedorova, Gleb Gusev, Alexey Drutsa

We study the problem of ranking from crowdsourced pairwise comparisons. Answers to pairwise tasks are known to be affected by the position of items on the screen, however, previous models for aggregation of pairwise comp…

Finding Patterns in Noisy Crowds: Regression-based Annotation Aggregation for Crowdsourced Data

2017-09-01 · EMNLP 2017 9 · Natalie Parde, Rodney Nielsen

Crowdsourcing offers a convenient means of obtaining labeled data quickly and inexpensively. However, crowdsourced labels are often noisier than expert-annotated data, making it difficult to aggregate them meaningfully. …

A Light-weight, Effective and Efficient Model for Label Aggregation in Crowdsourcing

2022-11-19 · Yi Yang, Zhong-Qiu Zhao, Quan Bai, Qing Liu 외

Due to the noises in crowdsourced labels, label aggregation (LA) has emerged as a standard procedure to post-process crowdsourced labels. LA methods estimate true labels from crowdsourced labels by modeling worker qualit…

Extracting Human Attention through Crowdsourced Patch Labeling

2024-03-22 · Minsuk Chang, SeokHyeon Park, Hyeon Jeon, Aeri Cho 외

In image classification, a significant problem arises from bias in the datasets. When it contains only specific types of images, the classifier begins to rely on shortcuts - simplistic and erroneous rules for decision-ma…
