RESEARCH PROJECTS

Decoding Persuasion on Crowdfunding Platforms

This research proposes a novel prediction framework based on persuasion theory to enhance crowdfunding success predictions. It aims to identify persuasive elements in project descriptions and improve the prediction accuracy so as to provide guidance for crowdfunding project initiators. The study integrates computational methods and deep learning to not only boost prediction performance but also offer interpretable insights, contributing to information systems and crowdfunding design.


Understanding Online Contribution: Impact Evaluation and Crowd Wisdom Extraction

With the massive amount of online contributions shaping individual and organizational decision-making, this project delves into utilizing and understanding this valuable resource. By combining econometrics and natural language processing, the research seeks innovative insights to leverage these vast information pools and assess their impacts on commerce and society.
