Domain-Specific Knowledge Base

Context:
- It can range from being a Human-Readable Domain-Specific KB to being a Machine-Readable Domain-Specific KB (such as a domain-specific ontology or a domain-specific KG).
- …

- QUOTE: … Our work focuses on a sub-set of crowdsourcing problems we term expert tasks - tasks that require specific domain knowledge. We experiment with crowdsourcing a knowledge base (KB) of scientists and their institutions using two methods: the first recruits experts who are likely to already know the necessary domain knowledge (using Google Adwords); the second employs non-experts who are incentivized to look up the information (using Amazon Mechanical Turk). …
