Extracted Abstract:

Recent years witnessed an explosion in the number and vari- ety of data crowdsourcing initiatives. From OpenStreetMap to Amazon Mechanical Turk, developers and practitioners have been striving to create user interfaces able to effec- tively and efficiently support the creation, exploration, and analysis of crowdsourced information. The extensive usage of crowdsourcing techniques brings a major change of paradigm with respect to traditional user interface for data collection and exploration, as effectiveness, speed, and interaction quality concerns play a central role in supporting very demanding incentives, including monetary ones. The First International Workshop on User Interfaces for Crowdsourcing and Human Computation (CrowdUI 2014), co-located with the AVI 2014 conference, brought together researchers and practitioners from a wide range of areas in- terested in discussing the user interaction challenges posed by crowdsourcing systems. Categories and Subject Descriptors H.4 [Information Systems Applications]: Miscellaneous Keywords Crowdsourcing; User Interfaces; Human Computation; User Incentives 1.

Level 1: Include/Exclude

  • Papers must discuss situated information visualization* (by Willet et al.) in the application domain of CH.
    *A situated data representation is a data representation whose physical presentation is located close to the data’s physical referent(s).
    *A situated visualization is a situated data representation for which the presentation is purely visual – and is typically displayed on a screen.
  • Representation must include abstract data (e.g., metadata).
  • Papers focused solely on digital reconstruction without information visualization aspects are excluded.
  • Posters and workshop papers are excluded to focus on mature research contributions.
