When combinations of humans and AI are useful: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Michelle Vaccaro, Abdullah Almaatouq, Thomas Malone
Inspired by the increasing use of AI to augment humans, researchers have studied human-AI systems involving different tasks, systems, and populations. Despite such a large body of…
A Test for Evaluating Performance in Human-Computer Systems
Andres Campero, Michelle Vaccaro, Jaeyoon Song +3
The Turing test for comparing computer performance to that of humans is well known, but, surprisingly, there is no widely used test for comparing how much better human-computer sys…
Will We Trust What We Don't Understand? Impact of Model Interpretability and Outcome Feedback on Trust in AI
Daehwan Ahn, Abdullah Almaatouq, Monisha Gulabani +1
Despite AI's superhuman performance in a variety of domains, humans are often unwilling to adopt AI systems. The lack of interpretability inherent in many modern AI techniques is b…
Network Structures of Collective Intelligence: The Contingent Benefits of Group Discussion
Joshua Becker, Abdullah Almaatouq, Emőke-Ágnes Horvát
Research on belief formation has produced contradictory findings on whether and when communication between group members will improve the accuracy of numeric estimates such as econ…
When social influence promotes the wisdom of crowds
Abdullah Almaatouq, M. Amin Rahimian, Jason W. Burton +1
Whether, and under what conditions, groups exhibit "crowd wisdom" has been a major focus of research across the social and computational sciences. Much of this work has focused on…
Empirica: a virtual lab for high-throughput macro-level experiments
Abdullah Almaatouq, Joshua Becker, James P. Houghton +3
Virtual labs allow researchers to design high-throughput and macro-level experiments that are not feasible in traditional in-person physical lab settings. Despite the increasing po…
Winning Models for GPA, Grit, and Layoff in the Fragile Families Challenge
Daniel E Rigobon, Eaman Jahani, Yoshihiko Suhara +4
In this paper, we discuss and analyze our approach to the Fragile Families Challenge. The challenge involved predicting six outcomes for 4,242 children from disadvantaged families…
The Wisdom of the Network: How Adaptive Networks Promote Collective Intelligence
Abdullah Almaatouq, Alejandro Noriega-Campero, Abdulrahman Alotaibi +3
Social networks continuously change as new ties are created and existing ones fade. It is widely noted that our social embedding exerts a strong influence on what information we re…
Dynamical Networks of Influence in Small Group Discussions
