An Experimental Evaluation of Task Assignment in Spatial Crowdsourcing
Summary: A unified experimental framework normalizes definitions, datasets, and implementations to compare spatial-crowdsourcing task-assignment algorithms. Extensive synthetic/real evaluations expose algorithmic strengths and weaknesses, providing an open-source benchmark for research and deployment. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
