Adding Labels to Documents

Follow these steps in Data Labeling to add one or more labels to documents. You add labels to annotate documents.

    1. In the Dataset Details page,
      • If Data records is selected, there are two ways to get to the Add labels page:
        • click the name of the document you want to label.
        • click the action icon for the document you want to label, and click Label.
      • If Gallery view is selected, click the name of the document you want to label.
    2. In the Add Labels page, under Label, select the correct label for the document if a single label document, or select one or more labels if a multiple label document.
      There is functionality to help you pick out details in the record:
      • There are some icons you can click to Zoom in, Zoom out, and Reset zoom to adjust the image size.
      • There are forward and back arrows so you can move between the pages of the document.
      • Click the Info icon, to display the labeling instructions from the Dataset creator in a resizeable and draggable panel.
      • Click Shortcuts to display a panel with the list of keystrokes to save you using the mouse to navigate this functionality and other actions on the screen.
      • Click Clear annotations to remove any labels from the document.
      • You can close, minimize, and move the panels that display all these functionalities to make it easier to label your images. The positions of these panels is cached in the browser. If you clear your browser's cache, or start using a different browser, they're displayed in the default positions. After you use a browser, the panels display in the positions you set them the last time you used it.
      Note

      Any changes you make as to how the record is displayed, are only for display, and aren't saved.
    3. Click Save & next to save your changes and label the next document, or click Save to save your changes. If you don't want to label a document click Skip to move to the next document. If you're at the last document, click Save & done to save your changes and return to the Dataset Details page.
    4. (Optional) Click Cancel to return to the Dataset Details page.
      If you have added a label to a record, but not saved it, you're prompted to confirm that you want to cancel.
  • Use the dataset update command and required parameters to add multiple labels to a document:
    oci data-labeling-service-dataplane record update [OPTIONS]
    For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.
  • Run the UpdateRecord operation to add more than one label to a document in Data Labeling.
