[Seminar] Tips for Annotation Management to Successfully Implement AI Machine Learning - Based on Experience Creating Over 48 Million Data Annually - (2/19)

AI Machine Learning Annotation Seminar on February 19, 2020 (Wednesday) in Shinjuku, Tokyo

 

Tips for Annotation Management to Successfully Lead AI Machine Learning

~ Over 48 million data creation experience for years ~


will be held.


———————————————————————————————————————


In AI and machine learning, the quality of annotation in training data greatly affects the accuracy of AI.

To improve accuracy, it is necessary to have a large number of human resources for creating massive amounts of training data, making quality and personnel management extremely important.

 

    While tools and their usage are important for annotation, there are few areas that can be automated, and manual work cannot be avoided.

    Therefore, the weight heavily depends on the characteristics and skills of the annotators, and no matter how much manuals are created or standardized, if the management points are off, productivity and quality will not improve.

    Therefore, the improvement of human performance and the "appropriate balance of coexistence" of manuals greatly influence the quality and productivity of annotations, but this is surprisingly overlooked.


    Human Science handles the creation of over 48 million training data annually.

    In this seminar, we will focus on the quality management aspect of annotations based on that knowledge, highlighting the important points.


  • ① How to incorporate information into manuals
  • ② Systems and mechanisms to maximize human performance

    • We will introduce these with examples and more.


    This seminar is highly recommended for those in charge who face the following challenges!


  • ・I created manuals and guidelines, but I'm not sure how much information I should include (if I include too much, it will never end).
  • ・Although manuals have been created, questions and interactions from annotators do not decrease.
  • ・I am told by the annotator that balancing quality and productivity is impossible, and I am troubled by this.
  • ・Unable to manage a large number of annotators
  • ・There is a large variation in productivity among annotators, and despite coaching, there is no improvement, which is troubling.
  • ・I want to focus on development tasks, so I don't have the capacity to manage annotators (annotation).

    • After the seminar, we will offer individual consultations as needed.

    Please check the "Request for Individual Consultation" box on the application form.

     

    Feel free to join us!
