What is Data Annotation?
It’s simply not enough to give a computer a large amount of data and expect it to learn – data has to undergo some preparation in order for computers to find patterns and inferences within it. For machine learning models to learn efficiently and effectively, data annotation must be accurate and relevant to the task the machine is being asked to perform. For this reason, large scale human-annotation services are key to successful machine learning. Lionbridge AI provides high-quality data annotation services for machine learning use cases.
