AlpacaTag is an active learning-based crowd annotation framework for sequence tagging, such as named-entity recognition (NER).
Website Documenations Paper Poster
The UI framework of AlpacaTag is based on the awesome work of Doccano, while the distinctive advantages of AlpacaTag are three-fold:
-
Active intelligent recommendation: dynamically suggesting annotations and sampling the most informative unlabeled instances with a back-end active learned model.
-
Automatic crowd consolidation: enhancing real-time inter-annotator agreement by merging inconsistent labels from multiple annotators.
-
Real-time model deployment: users can deploy their models in downstream systems while new annotations are being made.
