Or, consider the case of David Baker,the biochemist working in Seattle developing Foldit.
Foldit is a beautiful open call because it enables non-experts to participate in a way that is fun.

Foldit is a protein-folding game that enables non-experts to participate in a way that is fun.
For example, the final author of the first Foldit paper was“Foldit players”(Cooper et al. 2010).
It is pretty cool that citizen scientists have labeled galaxies at Galaxy Zoo andfolded proteins at Foldit.
Second, by some definitions of human computation(e.g.,Von Ahn(2005)), FoldIt should be considered a human computation project.
It is pretty cool that citizen scientists have labeled galaxies at Galaxy Zoo andfolded proteins at Foldit.
Foldit and the Netflix prize are different in many ways, but they both involve open calls for solutions that are easier to check than generate.
But, open call projects can also involve participants who have no formal training,as was illustrated by Foldit, a protein folding game.

Although Peer-to-Patent may seem different than the Netflix Prize and Foldit, it has a similar structure in that solutions are easier to check than generate.
While watching these visualizations, Baker began to wonder whether it would be possible for humans to help in the process, andthus began Foldit, a creative and beautiful open call(Hand 2010).
In fact, in a head-to-head competition between Foldit players and state-of-the-art algorithms, the players created better solutions for 5 out of 10 proteins(Cooper et al. 2010).
He could never have anticipated that someone from McKinney, Texas named Scott“Boots” Zaccanelli, who worked by day as a buyer for a valve factory, would spend his evenings folding proteins,eventually rising to a number 6 ranking on Foldit, and that Zaccaenlli would, through the game, submit a design for a more stable variant of fibronectin that Baker and his group found so promising they decided to synthesize it in their lab(Hand 2010).

He could never have anticipated that someone from McKinney, Texas named Scott“Boots” Zaccanelli, who worked by day as a buyer for a valve factory, would spend his evenings folding proteins,eventually rising to a number-six ranking on Foldit, and that Zaccaenlli would, through the game, submit a design for a more stable variant of fibronectin that Baker and his group found so promising that they decided to synthesize it in their lab(Hand 2010).
Although Peer-to-Patent may seem different than the Netflix Prize and Foldit, it has a similar structure in that solutions are easier to check than generate.
In fact, in a head-to-head competition to predict the structure of 10 specific proteins, Foldit players were able to beat state-of-the-art protein folding algorithms five times(Cooper et al. 2010).
