  1. Crowd Mining Tova Milo

  2. The research frontier Think of humanity and its collective mind expanding… But first a story… Crowd Mining

  3. Let us put this in research terminology… • Imprecise, under-specified questions. Often in natural language. Search for common/interesting/useful/exceptional patterns in an “open world” • Huge amounts of relevant data sources & content. Often in natural language. Partially only in people minds! Many important application domains: (Folk) medicine, Social studies, Education, Cyber security, Scientific experiments,… Requires a new type of crowd-assisted (interactive) mining Crowd Mining

  4. Mining with the crowd • Mining for what? • Query understanding and refinement • Identifying relevant information sources • Relevant patterns and answers • How? • Mining human and computerized knowledge • Interactive incremental process • Crowd mining is very different from traditional data mining! The questions/answers that one can ask/get Availability, behavior, error, reliability, cost… User capacity of grasping information • Need to develop new toolkits • NLP, ML, statistics, phycology, HCI, … Hey ,but isn’t this again all about source capabilities???!!! Yes, but very different… Huge number of sources, very interactive, very diverse Crowd Mining

  5. The end of the story… • My son passed the exam (smart kid :-) • But decided that he prefers to have fun for three months rather than spend his days programming… (even smarter :-) Crowd Mining
