Annotation
What is annotation?
Annotation, also known as data labeling, is the process of annotating or labeling data, typically image data, but also videos, text, and audio. This process has become increasingly more important and popular with the rise of machine learning and supervised learning in specific. Supervised learning algorithms need to be fed training data that is labeled. Although there are a host of labeled datasets that are public and accessible, companies are seeing the importance of building their own proprietary annotated data sets. They are using data labeling software to achieve these goals.
