I'm really happy to announce that we've recently had a paper published on Wildlife@home in the 15th International Conference on Computational Science (http://www.iccs-meeting.org/iccs2015/). We compared user accuracy to expert accuracy for both the old interface and the new interface, and results are pretty great -- with the new interface some categories (like bird presence) jumped from around 50% (basically a guess) to 70-80%!
If you'd like to give the paper a read I'm making a pre-print version available for you here: http://volunteer.cs.und.edu/csg/wildlife/publications/2015_iccs_wildlife.pdf. Let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks again for all your support, feedback and participation in the project! On another note, I'm putting the finishing touches on a new Wildlife@Home application, and next week is spring break, so expect test workunits out this week and weekend for that.
