Terms in this listing

  • Annotation: Adding labels or notes to data such as text, images, audio or video so a model can learn from it.
  • Labeling: Assigning a category or tag to an item, for example marking a review as positive or negative. Often used as a synonym for annotation.
  • Guidelines: The project's written instructions that define how to do a task and how to judge answers. On most projects they take precedence over personal preference.
  • Rationale: The short written explanation you give for a rating or ranking. Reviewers often weigh it as much as the rating itself.
