IdeaHound: improving large-scale collaborative ideation with crowd-powered real-time semantic ...
summary
IdeaHound combines a shared whiteboard where participants drag ideas into clusters with real-time aggregation to build a low‑dimensional idea map using pairwise co-clustering probabilities fed to a dimensionality reduction (t-SNE). An integrated crowdsourcing workflow captures semantic judgments from 200+ Mechanical Turk contributors as they ideate, avoiding 1,000 outsourced triplet tasks. The system yields maps that correlate better with human similarity judgments, preserves idea quantity/creativity/diversity, and raises but then reduces mental effort.
