    <abstract>Annotation is an essential step in the development cycle of many Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems. Lately, crowd-sourcing has been employed to facilitate large scale annotation at a reduced cost. Unfortunately, verifying the quality of the submitted annotations is a daunting task. Existing approaches address this problem either through sampling or redundancy. However, these approaches do have a cost associated with it. Based on the observation that a crowd-sourcing worker returns to do a task that he has done previously, a novel framework for automatic validation of crowd-sourced task is proposed in this paper. A case study based on sentiment analysis is presented to elucidate the framework and its feasibility. The result suggests that validation of the crowd-sourced task can be automated to a certain extent.</abstract>
