Pose estimation of the human body and hands is a fundamental problem in computer vision, and learning-based solutions require a large amount of annotated data. In this work, we improve the efficiency of the data annotation process for 3D…
Training and deploying machine learning models relies on a large amount of human-annotated data. As human labeling becomes increasingly expensive and time-consuming, recent research has developed multiple strategies to speed up annotation…
Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) aims to adapt a model trained on the source domain (e.g. synthetic data) to the target domain (e.g. real-world data) without requiring further annotations on the target domain. This work focuses on UDA…
High-quality labeled data is essential for training robust machine learning models, yet obtaining annotations at scale remains expensive. AI-assisted annotation has therefore become standard in large-scale labeling workflows. However, in…
As machine learning (ML) models are increasingly used in social domains to make consequential decisions about humans, they often have the power to reshape data distributions. Humans, as strategic agents, continuously adapt their behaviors…
Augmented Reality (AR) enables intuitive interaction with virtual annotations overlaid on the real world, supporting a wide range of applications such as remote assistance, education, and industrial training. However, as the number of…
Active learning effectively collects data instances for training deep learning models when the labeled dataset is limited and the annotation cost is high. Besides active learning, data augmentation is also an effective technique to enlarge…
Scaling inference-time computation has substantially improved the reasoning capabilities of language models. However, existing methods have significant limitations: serialized chain-of-thought approaches generate overly long outputs,…
RGBD images with high quality annotations in the form of geometric (i.e., segmentation) and structural (i.e., how do the segments are mutually related in 3D) information provide valuable priors to a large number of scene and image…
Image annotation for active learning is labor-intensive. Various automatic and semi-automatic labeling methods are proposed to save the labeling cost, but a reduction in the number of labeled instances does not guarantee a reduction in cost…
Annotator disagreement is ubiquitous in natural language processing (NLP) tasks. There are multiple reasons for such disagreements, including the subjectivity of the task, difficult cases, unclear guidelines, and so on. Rather than simply…
Generative large language models (LLMs) can be a powerful tool for augmenting text annotation procedures, but their performance varies across annotation tasks due to prompt quality, text data idiosyncrasies, and conceptual difficulty.…
We describe a novel method for efficiently eliciting scalar annotations for dataset construction and system quality estimation by human judgments. We contrast direct assessment (annotators assign scores to items directly), online pairwise…
