A hybrid crowdsourcing incentive mechanism based on users' preference

Due to its nature, the success of a crowdsourcing application strongly relies on the volume of users’ participation.Thus, crowdsourcing applications need elements that can motivate users to participate, such as incentives or rewards.In this paper, the development of a hybrid incentive mechanism that...
