Human computation projects take a big problem;
Galaxy Zoo is a good illustration of how many human computation projects evolve.
Human computation projects combine the work of many non-experts to solve easy-task-big-scale problems.
This comparison shows that, as with Galaxy Zoo, human computation projects can produce high quality results.
Human computation projects are ideally suited for easy-task-big-scale problems, such as labeling a million images.
Now I can also highlight two important differences between open call projects and human computation projects.
Human computation projects are ideally suited for easy-task-big-scale problems such as labeling a million images.
It is these easy-for-people yet hard-for-computers micro-tasks that we can turn over to human computation projects.
This comparison shows that, as with Galaxy Zoo, human computation projects can produce high-quality results.
Human computation projects take a big problem, break it into simple pieces, send them to many workers, and then aggregate the results.
This table shows that, unlike Galaxy Zoo, many other human computation projects use micro-task labor markets(e.g., Amazon Mechanical Turk).
Two clever human computation projects that I did not have space to discuss are the ESP Game(Ahn and Dabbish 2004) and reCAPTCHA(Ahn et al. 2008).
This table shows that, unlike Galaxy Zoo, many other human computation projects use microtask labor markets(e.g., Amazon Mechanical Turk) and rely on paid workers rather than volunteers.
Human computation projects take a big problem, break it into simple pieces, send them to many workers, and then aggregate the results.
In social research, human computation projects are most likely to be used in situations where researchers want to classify, code, or label images, video, or texts.

Human computation projects combine the efforts of many people working on simple micro-tasks in order to solve problems that are impossibly big for one person.
Galaxy Zoo, and other human computation projects, typically use a split-apply-combine strategy(Wickham 2011), and once you understand this strategy you will be able to use it to solve lots of problems.

Create a human computation project to see if the ratio of women to men on the cover has changed over time.

According to the definition proposed in Ahn(2005) Foldit- which I describedin the section on open calls- could be considered a human computation project.
Second, by some definitions of human computation(e.g., Ahn(2005)),Foldit should be considered a human computation project.
If this approach does not scale well,the researcher can move to a human computation project with many participants.

I call this a computer-assisted human computation project because, rather than having humans solve a problem, it has humans build a dataset that can be used to train a computer to solve the problem.
