本文描述了基于网络的软件开发过程,该软件有助于在数字人文学科感兴趣的以图像为主的语料库中进行大规模的、众包的图像提取和注释。其次,通过一个案例研究,详细评估了该软件的应用,该案例研究部署在Amazon Mechanical Turk中,从《时代》杂志的档案中提取并注释人脸。注释标签包括年龄、性别和种族等类别,这些类别随后被用于训练机器学习模型。在这个案例研究中,本文详细介绍了众包数据收集和工人质量验证程序的系统化。本文概述了一种数据验证方法,该方法使用验证图像,并且只需要对每张图像进行两次注释就可以生成高保真数据,其效果堪比对每张图像进行5次注释的效果。最后,本文对如何个性化使用该软件进行了说明,以满足其他研究的需求,旨在为研究人员提供这种资源,在其他图像大量的档案中进行目标分析。
