Question Selection for Crowd Entity Resolution

Summary: Proposes a probabilistic crowdsourced ER framework that quantifies the impact of each human question on clustering accuracy. Since exact expected accuracy is #P-hard, it offers efficient approximations and shows substantial accuracy gains with far fewer crowd queries on real and synthetic data.
