Data Annotation Services

Data annotation in machine learning is the process of labeling data available in different forms such as texts, videos, images, etc. The labels are added in the form of tags and metatags that help the natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision-based models to calculate attributes easily.

For the machine learning algorithms to make sense out of the big data sets, supervised training is required. Therefore, constant access to voluminous, high-quality, accurate, and relevant datasets is an important prerequisite for data annotation. This is to ensure that the outcomes are reliable and can be used for informed decision-making.

Different data modalities require different data annotation techniques. Text annotation techniques include semantic segmentation, entity linking, phrase chunking, etc. Likewise, image and video annotation techniques consist of 2D bounding box annotation, 3D point cloud labeling, polygons, etc.

Data collection is not a challenge for organizations, thanks to the easy disposal of data. However, processing volumes of quality data is a significant undertaking. In other words, efficient data labeling at scale becomes challenging for many businesses. Also, the accuracy of outcomes is directly related to the accuracy of input training sets. This is where professional data annotation services come to your rescue!

Labeling different sets to be fed into the machine learning algorithms requires expertise and time. The absence of accurate labels and human expertise makes attribute computation difficult for smart models. Therefore, human-in-the-loop is essential for AI quality control. The professional providers have competent annotators equipped with state-of-the-art tools to accurately label datasets and ensure quality outcomes.

Data annotation can be performed in-house until the quantity of data is manageable. Once it gets complex, you need subject matter experts and the right tools to label it properly. Take for instance– you are creating a medical field product, you will need a subject matter expert to label things found on a CT-scan report. The professional providers already have the potential required to annotate data sets of varying subtleties; making it a smart way out!
