Game with A Purpose

Two games are designed to collect semantic tags.

First game is analogous to Peek-A-Boom game:

•Inverse-Problem game

•Boom:

–Give a image with city name (from panoramio probably)

–Ask to point some predefined attributes (tree, building,…etc.) for peek

•Peek

–Answer the location of the city with as least of number of attributes given as possible

•Effect:

–Collect location of most representative objects for the place

The second game is analogous to Herd-It game:

•Given one query image (with or w/o ground truth location) and multiple players

•Game:

–Ask which of k other images matches query image the best.

•Effect:

–Collect relational similar image of query image and output the possible location of query image at the same time

Social Mobilization + GWAP - VFYW breaker:

•Crowd sourcing the answer of VFYW game by playing the game (such as the second game)

•Collect useful tags at the same time

•The highest score player has the right for own the answer to VFYW contest
