Project Creation Wizard Step Workforce management is a critical piece of the data labeling flow. We've interviewed 100+ ML teams around the world and captured best practices for managing a labeling team. Datasaur's workforce management platform allows you to create teams, invite team members, assign projects, and review the work.
After signing in, you will automatically be directed to your personal workspace. On the top-right hand corner, please click Switch Workspace -> Create a New Workspace.. . You can type in a team name and add a logo.
Note: the maximum logo size that can be uploaded is 500 KB.
You can also rename the team and change the logo by hovering to the left sidebar and clicking Settings.
Once you have reached your team workspace, invite your team members by navigating to the Members page on the left sidebar and click "+ Invite member." In the pop-up, you can enter up to 20 email addresses (separated by commas) and choose a role for the new members, such as Admin, Supervisor, Reviewer, or Labeler.
Once done, click Send Invitation, and your teammates will receive an email with instructions to join.
If you ever need to update someone’s role, you can do that easily from the Members page. Just click the three-dot menu next to their name, pick the role you want to assign, and you’re all set.
You can also sort and filter members by name and role.
The project creation step 4 is to properly set the assignment to labelers and reviewers.
A project can be assigned to one or more labelers.
Conflict Resolution:
The Peer Review Consensus slider allows you to determine the threshold at which labels will be automatically accepted. For highly sensitive projects where there is no room for error, you may want to ensure unanimity from all assigned labelers. For less sensitive projects where efficiency and cost are more important than accuracy, a majority vote may be sufficient. Any label where the threshold is not met will need to be manually reviewed by you, the project creator / reviewer.
If you check No Consensus, all of labelers label will be treated as conflicting labels
If you have a project with multiple files and multiple labelers, using the Auto file distribution might save your time. Our system will distribute the files according to the consensus review that has been set previously.
💡 Best practice: a common practice is to assign multiple labelers to the same project to get multiple perspectives and eliminate human bias. This can increase accuracy, but will increase costs and time.
In step 5, you can modify the project settings to match with your labeling workflow. These settings are also available in the Project Settings once the project is created.
Label set modification ensures that the label set cannot be changed by labelers.
Text modification ensures that the document text itself cannot be changed by labelers or reviewers. Kindly refer to the table below for the detailed permission.
📌 Please note that only admin can access the setting.
Confirm unapplied label classes when marking document as complete ensures that the assignees can review all label classes that are not applied in the document when marking the document as complete.
Show labeler names in Review Mode ensures that the reviewers can see labelers' names.
Show rejected labels in Review Mode ensures that the reviewers can see all the labels they rejected.
Hide labels from inactive label set during review ensures that labels from inactive label set will be hidden during review.
Show original sentences in review mode ensures the reviewers can see all original sentences.
Mask Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is in the next section.
You can set the Mask PII setting to anonymize the selected information attributes in the project. After you turn the Mask PII setting on, you can define the masking data method and the attributes to mask by clicking the Data Masking Settings.
Masking Data Method is how Datasaur masks the information attributes that you have defined. There are two ways to mask the information attributes:
Random Character: Replace the personal information with random character.
Example: May 23rd, 2022 → Pgh 78ax, 9928
Asterisk: Replace the personal information with asterisk.
Example: John Doe -> **** ***
To select the information attributes to mask, you can check/uncheck the PII fields on the table. You can also set the regular expression rule to define what entities to mask.
As an admin, you can also hide labelers' names from the reviewers. This feature can be useful to avoid bias while reviewing the project. You can disable the Show labeler names in Review Mode toggle to turn this feature on. The Review extension will look like the screenshot below to the Reviewer.
After clicking the Launch Project button, you will be taken to the newly created project.
âš Note that as the project creator you will start in Reviewer Mode. If you would like to start labeling, you will need to assign yourself, click the profile dropdown on the navigation bar, then click Switch to Labeler Mode. Any other assigned labelers will automatically start in Labeler Mode.
Reviewer Mode has a Review extension on the right side. This will contain a Conflicts section.
Team overview contains a high-level overview of your team's projects and progress. This dashboard is only available and visible to Team Admins.
Note: only admins can manage tags.
This feature allows you to set the limitations for each role in exporting the project.
For example, you want to disable Export feature on labelers' accounts due to security reasons. You can simply uncheck all the methods on Labeler section, then click Save.
After that, Export feature will not be shown on labeler's account like the example below.
Removing team members can be done by navigating to the left sidebar and select Members page. You can click the triple dots and click Remove.
Creating a project in a team workspace can only be done by an admin. It is the same as creating a project in your personal workspace, with one key difference. When creating a custom project as an admin, there are additional 4th and 5th steps. Please follow the steps outlined in until you reach step 4.
