Abstract
We consider a setting where a consumer would like to elicit independent
but costly reports from third-party experts about the reliability of a number
of service providers. These reports can be of variable accuracy, but more accurate
reports will be more costly to produce, and the consumer can fuse reports from
several experts to choose the provider with the highest probability of success.We
explore a number of mechanisms to address this setting, including scoring rules,
and indicate the problems in obtaining both truth telling and inducing the experts
to produce accurate reports. We present a partial solution to this problem, and
discuss remaining challenges.
