Perspective

TWIMLcon 2019

This talk will focus on methods that ensure the fair creation of training data for machine learning, whether the annotators are in-house, contracted, or work as crowdsourced workers online. It will show that contrary to the widely-held belief that training data creation is a race to the bottom in pricing, it is possible to maximize quality and fairness at the same time for almost any machine learning task.
