Collaborative Problem Solving on a Data Platform Kaggle

Abstract

Data exchange across different domains has gained much attention as a way of creating new businesses and improving the value of existing services. Data exchange ecosystem is developed by platform services that facilitate data and knowledge exchange and offer co-creation environments for organizations to promote their problem-solving. In this study, we investigate Kaggle, a data analysis competition platform, and discuss the characteristics of data and the ecosystem that contributes to collaborative problem-solving by analyzing the datasets, users, and their relationships.
