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
