<blockquote>Our study addresses this research problem: What workflow provides for a combination of machine-assisted and human-assisted procedures to most effectively and efficiently convert textual data on specimen labels into machine-processable parsed data to ingest in a database and associate with the digitized specimen? The goal of this project is to answer this question. The project goal will be accomplished through the following objectives: | |||
Identify and test machine processes for initial transformation of label data | |||
Identify human processes that act on the machine-transformed data to correct and enhance label data | |||
Develop, test, and assess user interfaces to support human processes | |||
Develop and test a workflow that incorporates both human- and machine-assisted procedures for effectiveness and efficiency in label data transformation and enhancement | |||
Assess quality of metadata resulting from machine and human processes | |||
