What is Text Classification?
At Lionbridge, we use our crowd of expert annotators to analyze your documents or text and flag key features within them. Those key features are then used to tag your content and sort them into the categories you require. Text classification models are used in a variety of AI solutions including chatbots, search engines, virtual assistants, spam detectors, and more. In order to train the models for these text classification solutions, human-annotated training data is required. Using our high-quality AI training data, you can have confidence knowing your algorithms are being provided with a solid ground truth.
