  • Patent number: 11354894
    Abstract: According to one implementation, a system for automating inferential content annotation includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code including a set of rules trained to annotate content inferentially. The hardware processor executes the software code to utilize one or more feature analyzer(s) to apply labels to features detected in the content, access one or more knowledge base(s) to validate at least one of the applied labels, and to obtain, from the knowledge base(s), descriptive data linked to the validated label(s). The software code then infers, using the set of rules, one or more label(s) for the content based on the validated label(s) and the descriptive data, and outputs tags for annotating the content, where the tags include the validated label(s) and the inferred label(s).

  • Patent number: 11074456
    Abstract: According to one implementation, a system for automating content annotation includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing an automation training software code. The hardware processor executes the automation training software code to initially train a content annotation engine using labeled content, test the content annotation engine using a first test set of content obtained from a training database, and receive corrections to a first automatically annotated content set resulting from the test. The hardware processor further executes the automation training software code to further train the content annotation engine based on the corrections, determine one or more prioritization criteria for selecting a second test set of content for testing the content annotation engine based on the statistics relating to the first automatically annotated content, and select the second test set of content from the training database based on the prioritization criteria.

  • Publication number: 20210012813
    Abstract: A content annotation system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing a tagging software code including an artificial neural network (ANN). The hardware processor executes the tagging software code to receive content having a content interval including an image of a generic content feature, encode the image into a latent vector representation of the image using an encoder of the ANN, and use a first decoder of the ANN to generate a first tag describing the generic content feature based on the latent vector representation. When a specific content feature learned by the ANN corresponds to the generic content feature described by the first tag, the tagging software code uses a second decoder of the ANN to generate a second tag uniquely identifying the specific content feature based on the latent vector representation, and tags the content interval with the first and second tags.
