Crowdsourcing has found a wide range of application in Community Question Answering (CQA). However, one of its biggest challenges is the need to address the quality of crowd answers contributions. Therefore, this work proposed a system that seeks to validate answers to questions provided by respondents using responders' attributes and crowd ranking technique. Weights were assigned to respondent answers based on their academic records, experience and understanding of the question to obtain valid answers. Thereafter, valid answers were ranked by the crowd using Borda Count algorithm. The proposed system was evaluated using Usability and User experience (UX) measurement. The result obtained demonstrated the effectiveness of the applied technique.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
