Data Labeling
How Are Labeling Guidelines Set Up?
Labeling guidelines are typically drafted first by the client or ML program owner. At BUNCH, we then take full ownership of these guidelines, continuously documenting edge cases so our teams become faster and more efficient over time.
The Setup Process
- Initial guidelines are created by the client, based on the model's goals and known requirements
- Guideline revisions are added based on expected edge cases and dataset variability, with language clarified and examples added so labelers can apply the rules consistently
- Calibration follows, where a small batch of data is labeled and compared against the client's ground truth to confirm alignment
- Iteration continues throughout the project, with guidelines updated as new edge cases or model requirements emerge
Treating guidelines as a living document, rather than a fixed one, is what keeps output consistent as datasets and teams grow. This is the approach BUNCH applies on every project, regardless of scale.
