Evaluating Crowd-sourcing Participants in the Absence of Ground-Truth

The code presents the novel approach to identify unhelpful or adversarial participants in a crowdsourcing setting where multiple labelers are available. Further, the code demonstrates the robustness of the perfected scoring scheme to evaluate the participants.

Note:
(a) Constant features beta and gamma are the last dimension of alpha and W respectively.
(b) Resulting probabilities [0, 1] from the model shall be mapped to [-1 1] using the simple transformation, 2 x y{0,1} - 1 = y{-1,1}.

Folders ErrorStatistics, MultiLabelerMethods and the DATA were shared by Yan Yan, now a Senior Software Engineer at LinkedIn and Romer Rosales, Principal Scientist at LinkedIn.
