Extensible Platform of Crowdsourcing on Social Networking Sites: An Analysis

The evolutionary history of the human brain shows advancement in its complexity and creativity during its evolutionary path from early primates to hominids, and finally to Homo sapiens. This most powerful human asset known as the brain is highly capable of solving problems. When a problem arises, humans make use of their intelligence and various methods of finding the solution. No doubt they have come up with the best solutions, but many questions have been raised on how that problem is approached and how the solution is derived. The peculiar thing is that everyone has a different mechanism of thinking and comes up with different patterns of solutions. Can this pattern be mimicked by a machine where a problem can be solved by inputs from multiple individuals? Crowdsourcing and neural networks come into play in this domain. Crowdsourcing deals with the pooling of ideas by people. The more people, the wider the perspective obtained. The data given by them are processed and the field of neural networks plays a vital role in analyzing the data. These data contain various patterns and hidden solutions to many problems.
