Patent ID: 10664927

Abstract:
Various technologies described herein pertain to automation of crowd-sourced polling. At least one query can be received. The at least one query includes a request. A poll can be automatically generated based upon the at least one query, where the poll corresponds to the request. The poll can be submitted to a crowdsourcing backend, where instances of the poll are administered on the crowdsourcing backend. Moreover, crowd-sourced responses to the instances of the poll can be retrieved from the crowdsourcing backend. The crowd-sourced responses to the instances of the poll can respectively include crowd-sourced responses to the request. The crowd-sourced responses to the request can be converted to a random variable. An operation can be performed upon the random variable. The operation can include one or more of a statistical analysis (e.g., hypothesis testing), bias correction, an arithmetic operation, expected value computation, standard deviation computation, etc.
