Offshore Data Annotators

Data Annotation Outsourcing Philippines

Data annotation is the backbone of any successful artificial intelligence (AI) project. It involves meticulously labelling and categorising data to train AI models to recognise patterns and make informed decisions.

What is a Data Annotator?

Data annotators prepare data for machine learning by identifying objects in images, transcribing audio, and classifying text. Through their efforts, AI models gain the ability to learn and make accurate predictions.

Various industries heavily rely on data annotators to power their initiatives. Key industries include:

  • Healthcare: Data annotators enable machines to interpret medical images such as X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans to help detect diseases more accurately and efficiently.
  • Autonomous vehicles: These professionals annotate images and videos of road scenes with self-driving cars to recognise objects like pedestrians, traffic signs, and other vehicles.
  • Retail: Data annotators analyse product images and customer reviews to generate recommendations and suggest relevant products.
  • Robotics: These professionals generate data on objects’ shapes, sizes, and locations, equipping robots to perform basic to complex human tasks.

What are the responsibilities of a data annotator?

To ensure the accuracy and reliability of the AI models, data annotators perform a variety of tasks, including:

Image annotation

This involves labelling objects, scenes, and actions within images. This process is essential for training AI models to recognise and classify visual content, enabling applications like image search, object detection, and facial recognition.

Text labelling

This process involves identifying entities, sentiments, and connections within the text. This is crucial for training AI models to understand and interpret human language, powering applications like sentiment analysis, machine translation, and chatbots.

Audio classification

This entails transcribing speech, identifying speakers, and labelling audio events. It aids AI models to understand and process spoken language, powering applications like voice assistants, speech recognition, and audio classification.

Video tagging

This task involves tracking objects, identifying actions, and labelling events within videos. This is essential for training AI models to analyse and understand visual and auditory information, enhancing applications like video surveillance, autonomous vehicles, and video content analysis.
