Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) provide domain-specific expertise for complex or high-stakes data labeling tasks, such as annotating imagery or video material. SMEs are professionals with specialized knowledge and experience in a particular field relevant to the data being labeled. They ensure that annotations are contextually accurate and align with the nuanced requirements of the domain. Examples of SME Roles in Data Labeling: * Medical Experts: Radiologists or pathologists annotate medical imagery like X-rays, MRIs, or histopathology slides for applications in diagnostic AI systems. * Geospatial Analysts: Professionals with expertise in satellite imagery and remote sensing label geographic or environmental features for defense, disaster management, or urban planning. * Security and Intelligence Specialists: Annotate video surveillance or aerial drone footage for object detection, activity recognition, or threat assessment. * Linguists and Language Experts: For natural language processing tasks, linguists provide expertise in language-specific nuances, such as sentiment analysis, translation, or speech recognition.
