CDAS: A Crowdsourcing Data Analytics System

Summary: CDAS is a crowdsourcing analytics framework that integrates human and machine tasks through a quality-sensitive query model. It estimates worker-driven result accuracy, adaptively verifies answers online, and reduces cost while meeting accuracy targets in Twitter sentiment and image-tagging workloads.
