Object interpolation
Object interpolation
Object interpolation in the data annotation process is used to accelerate the annotation of objects across a sequence of frames in video annotation.
Annotators label the shape of an object in the first and the last keyframe of desired sequence and the object interpolation algorithm automatically generates the labels for the object in the intermediate frames.
It saves time and also ensures consistent labeling across frames.
A-Z order
A-Z order
Objects can be placed on different leveled layers, which allows operators to correctly detect and work with those objects and their boundaries.
Multilayer annotation
Multilayer annotation
Multilayer annotation is a complex yet valuable process in data annotation where different types of materials are layered onto a single item.
This allows the addition of multiple, diverse annotations to a single piece of data such as an image or video frame.
Each layer might provide a different dimension of information, enriching the dataset with multiple facets of detail.
This allows the addition of multiple, diverse annotations.
Object linking
Object linking
Object linking in the data annotation process is a valuable function that connects different instances of the same object across multiple frames or images.
For example, in video annotation, an object appearing in different frames is linked throughout the video, ensuring the continuity and consistency of the annotation.
Hierarchical atributes
Hierarchical atributes
The attribute is a type of tag that can be applied to a class or property to provide metadata about it.
Using attribute hierarchies, it is possible to define structures of metadata for each item in dataset.
It is achieved by using dependent attributes, which allows logical forming of metadata information for frame or object individually.
Workflow and task distribution
Workflow and task distribution
Workflow includes custom stages of one of 4 project stage types: annotation, verification, miscellanious and final.
Good workflow and task distribution ensure that the data annotation process is smooth, efficient and completed within the required timeframe.
Data management

Data management
Data management in the context of the data annotation process is about strategically handling and organizing the data throughout its lifecycle.
Effective data management helps to uphold data integrity and ensure that the final annotated data is accurate, consistent and ready for use in AI and machine learning projects.
Attributes interpolation
Attributes interpolation
Attributes metadata can also be interpolatable (changed) between the frames. For instance, In a self-driving car video annotation, this can label a car as a "sedan" going "30 mph" in the first frame & automatically estimate its type & speed in subsequent frames until the next key frame. This eliminates the need for manual annotation in each intervening frame, saving time & effort.
