Enabling Machine Science Through Distributed Human Computing, Mark David Wagy
Enabling Machine Science Through Distributed Human Computing, Mark David Wagy
Graduate College Dissertations and Theses
Distributed human computing techniques have been shown to be effective ways of accessing the problem-solving capabilities of a large group of anonymous individuals over the World Wide Web. They have been successfully applied to such diverse domains as computer security, biology and astronomy. The success of distributed human computing in various domains suggests that it can be utilized for complex collaborative problem solving. Thus it could be used for "machine science": utilizing machines to facilitate the vetting of disparate human hypotheses for solving scientific and engineering problems.
In this thesis, we show that machine science is possible through distributed human …
