Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Replace majority voting with Flat Multinomial worker-skill aggregation | Bluebird crowdsourcing · Bluebird dataset | label error rate: 24.07 -> 11.11 | Helped |
| Use computer vision probabilities in Flat Multinomial aggregation (ablation) | Flat Multinomial · Bluebird dataset | label error rate: 11.11 -> 10.19 | Helped |
| Use worker-skill aggregation instead of majority voting | NABirds crowdsourcing · NABirds, 69 species | annotation count to reach the same error: 5.4× decrease | Helped |
| Add computer vision probabilities to the single binomial model (ablation) | NABirds crowdsourcing · NABirds, 69 species, Combined | error: 25% decrease | Helped |
| Initialize global priors from a small held-out set with ground-truth labels (ablation) | NABirds worker-skill models · NABirds, 69 species, Combined-Prior | error: 0.03; 79% decrease from majority vote | Helped |
| Model dependence between labels (ablation) | Flat single binomial worker model · iNaturalist birds, 30 species | error: 59% decrease | Helped |
| Model dependence between labels (ablation) | Flat multinomial worker model · iNaturalist birds, 30 species | error: 85% decrease | Helped |
| Use a taxonomic rather than flat worker-skill model (ablation) | Single binomial worker model · iNaturalist birds, 30 species | error | Hurt |
| Use a taxonomic rather than flat worker-skill model (ablation) | Multinomial worker model · iNaturalist birds, 30 species | error: 36% decrease | Helped |
| Add dependence modeling to taxonomic worker-skill models (ablation) | Taxonomic multinomial worker model · iNaturalist birds, 30 species | error: 90% decrease over majority vote | Helped |
| Use the taxonomic multinomial model with dependence modeling instead of majority voting | iNaturalist crowdsourcing · iNaturalist birds, 30 species | error: 90% decrease; 28 total errors | Helped |
