Summary

The blog post discusses the critical importance of high-quality training data in computer vision and the impact of label errors on model performance. It introduces a series on data errors in computer vision, focusing on identifying and resolving common label errors such as inaccurate labels, mislabeled images, and missing labels. The post highlights that manual inspection of large datasets for label errors is impractical and outlines three strategies to mitigate these errors: providing clear labeling instructions, implementing a quality assurance system, and using trained models to detect label errors. The post uses Encord Active, an open-source active learning framework, to demonstrate how a trained model can identify and correct label errors in datasets, emphasizing the need for continuous improvement of training data quality.
