Researchers Theme Outline
This research develops a framework to design mechanisms that satisfy desirable properties such as efficiency and fairness, for social activities in the information environment. We analyze human behaviors in the information environment by integrating the bottom-up approach based on data analysis techniques and the top-down approach based on game theory concepts. Our aim is to apply the framework to construct reliable crowdsourcing services in which people can adequately exchange knowledge and skills.
