siliconindia | | January 20214AI and ML is constantly gaining acceptance and more interest among computer engineers. And availability of machine learning training data is the crucial point to improve the AI performance, and image annotation helps create training data for visual perception model developed on the principles of AI and ML. It is indeed a growing sphere that is going to see more inclusion in various industries. Especially when we are going to witness more self-driving cars, robots and autonomous flying machines, the integration of annotation is just going to go deeper in these industries. As these machines doesn't have the capabilities to detect objects unless trained with certain process, annotation help make detection of such objects of interest to machines possible. And so the importance of data annotation to train our AI and ML projects with the right information to learn from is also gaining precedence.In our current edition of siliconindia, we bring to you the list of `10 Most Promising Data & Image Annotation Companies ­ 2020'.
