摘要：Crowdsourcing platforms provide venues for firms looking for solutions (seekers) to interact with individuals who can provide solutions (solvers). As crowdsourcing contest platforms have grown in popularity, with numerous tasks being posted on a daily basis, a concern that has emerged is that many similar tasks compete for solver attention, with some tasks failing to attract sufficient solver participation. To alleviate this concern, in addition to regular task listings, many crowdsourcing pla...

摘要：The increasing frequency and severity of disasters underscore the limits of commonly used vulnerability indices (the Social Vulnerability Index (SoVI), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC's) Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA's) National Risk Index (NRI)) that rely on static demographic proxies. As disaster impacts differ according to community composition, these limitations risk embedding st...

摘要：Recommendation systems have become integral to modern e-commerce and streaming platforms, enhancing user experience through personalized content and product suggestions. Whereas users benefit from personalized recommendations by allowing platforms to leverage their interaction data for model training, regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) uphold users' right to be forgotten, which permits individuals to request the deletion of their personal data, including interact...

摘要：More than 90% of medical devices in the United States enter the market through the Food and Drug Administration's 510(k) clearance pathway, which is primarily based on demonstrating the equivalence of new devices (known as applicant devices) to previously cleared devices (known as predicate devices). However, healthcare professionals have raised concerns that applicant devices cleared this way may be more prone to recalls, which can result in substantial patient harm (if patients are exposed t...

摘要：This study investigates the behavioral impact of on-demand wage access (OWA), a financial technology (fintech) innovation that allows low-wage workers to access earned wages ahead of traditional pay cycles. Whereas OWA has gained traction as a liquidity-enhancing tool, limited empirical research has explored its effects on financial behavior and the mechanisms through which it operates. Grounded in the concept of selfempowerment, we theorize that OWA enables greater autonomy over income use, w...

摘要：We conceptualize the emergent use of artificial intelligence to craft immersive cross-cultural experiences in media and entertainment (M&E). The class of problems that we are looking to address is the creation and maintenance of an immersive experience with presence when an M&E organization is transposing a visual entertainment product across languages and cultural contexts. We conducted an action design research study using neural facial reenactment (NFR) technology to visually adapt foreign ...

摘要：We analyze how the decline of a technology affects online labor market dynamics. We evaluate the effects of Steve Jobs' announcement that Apple would no longer support Adobe Flash-a popular set of tools for creating internet applications. Despite a precipitous decline in Flash demand, there is no evidence of a reduction in Flash wages on this platform because the supply response was rapid, particularly among younger developers with readily available fallback skills. The key to this rapid adjus...

摘要：Crowdsourcing contests have become increasingly popular as a means of seeking innovative solutions to business problems. However, the abundance of concurrent contests on platforms can lead to disparities in solvers' contest awareness, resulting in lost time-the time elapsed between the start of a contest and a solver's first visit. This study investigates how lost time influences solvers' submission behavior and its subsequent impact on matching inefficacy as measured by solver disqualificatio...

摘要：Cloud services exist under a shared security environment with a dynamic nature; users trade fixed costs for variable costs over time, and both cloud services providers (CSPs) and users contribute to overall security. We investigate the nature of shared security in a dynamic game where users' security contributions and cloud usage figure into their CSP's vulnerability. Furthermore, CSPs' own security contribution takes into account both their users as well as competition with other CSPs. The Ma...

摘要：Social media platforms expose users to an overwhelming volume of novel and often unverified information, shaping opinions that influence behavior both online and offline. The formation of initial opinions in such environments is critical, as these early impressions guide subsequent information processing, decision making, and belief systems. Drawing on cognitive psychology and information systems theories, this research examines how cognitive mechanisms and digital identity factors influence o...
