Input from a crowd
- Crowdsourcing 众包 gathers input, ideas, content, or money from a large group of people, usually online.

来自人群的投入
- 众包(crowdsourcing)从一大群人那里收集投入、想法、内容或钱,通常在线。
- 互联网让它在全球规模上成为可能——数百万人能从任何地方贡献。
- 一个对少数人太大的任务被分摊到许多双手。
- 没有小团队能匹配一个联网人群的触及范围。
Crowdsourcing gathers input, content, or money from: · 众包从哪里收集投入、内容或钱:
The Internet enables it on a global scale. · 互联网让它在全球规模上成为可能。
The Internet lets crowdsourcing reach millions of contributors from anywhere. · 互联网让众包触及来自任何地方的数百万贡献者。
Global reach is what makes crowdsourcing so powerful. · 全球触及是让众包如此强大的东西。
Common examples
- Citizen science 公民科学: volunteers help classify galaxies or count wildlife.
- Product reviews and ratings written by ordinary users.
- Collaborative funding, where many people each give a small amount to back a project.
- In each case, scale comes from many small contributions.
常见例子
- 公民科学(citizen science):志愿者帮助分类星系或清点野生动物。
- 普通用户写的产品评论和评分。
- 协作筹资,许多人每人给一小笔来支持一个项目。
- 每种情况下,规模来自许多小的贡献。
Benefit or challenge of crowdsourcing? · 众包的好处还是挑战?
Crowdsourcing brings diverse, large-scale contributions, but also quality-control challenges since not every contributor is careful or honest. · 众包带来多样的、大规模的贡献,但也带来质量控制的挑战,因为不是每个贡献者都仔细或诚实。
Volunteers helping classify galaxies or count wildlife is an example of ______ science. · 志愿者帮助分类星系或清点野生动物是______科学的一个例子。
Citizen science is a common form of crowdsourcing. · 公民科学是众包的一种常见形式。
A key benefit of crowdsourcing is: · 众包的一个关键好处是:
Many hands and viewpoints tackle a huge task. · 许多双手和视角处理一个巨大的任务。
A key challenge of crowdsourced data is: · 众包数据的一个关键挑战是:
Reliability must be managed, e.g. by majority answers. · 可靠性必须被管理,例如通过多数答案。
Benefits and challenges
- The benefits are diverse 多样的 contributions and shared effort — a huge task spread across many viewpoints.
- But crowdsourced data brings challenges too.
- Reliability and quality 质量 control are hard, since not every contributor is careful or honest.
- So a good project plans for mistakes from the start.
好处与挑战
- 好处是多样的(diverse)贡献和分担的努力——一个巨大的任务分散到许多视角。
- 但众包数据也带来挑战。
- 可靠性和质量(quality)控制很难,因为不是每个贡献者都仔细或诚实。
- 所以一个好项目从一开始就为错误做计划。
Showing each item to several people and keeping the majority answer helps protect quality. · 把每个项给几个人看并保留多数答案有助于保护质量。
It filters out careless or dishonest single answers. · 它过滤掉粗心或不诚实的单个答案。
Protecting quality
- A common defence is to show each item to several people and keep the majority answer.
- That filters out careless or dishonest single contributions.
Labelling galaxies. A project asks the public to label images as spiral or oval. No small research team could sort millions of images, but 100,000 online volunteers finish in weeks. The catch: some mislabel images — so the project shows each image to several people and keeps the majority answer to protect quality.
保护质量
- 一个常见的防御是把每个项给几个人看,保留多数的答案。
- 那过滤掉粗心或不诚实的单个贡献。
给星系贴标签。 一个项目请公众把图像标为螺旋或椭圆。没有小研究团队能整理数百万图像,但 100,000 名在线志愿者在几周内完成。问题:一些人贴错标签——所以项目把每个图像给几个人看,保留多数答案以保护质量。
Crowdsourcing gathers input, content, or money from a large online crowd, which the Internet enables globally (e.g. citizen science). Its strength is diverse, shared effort; its challenge is quality control, since not every contributor is careful. Showing each item to several people and keeping the majority answer protects quality.
众包从一大群在线人群收集投入、内容或钱,互联网让它全球化(如公民科学)。它的优势是多样的、分担的努力;它的挑战是质量控制,因为不是每个贡献者都仔细。把每个项给几个人看并保留多数答案保护质量。
