Programmatic is like a REPL for data annotation. You: 1. Write simple rules/functions that can approximately label the data 2. Get near-instant feedback across your entire corpus 3. Iterate and improve your rules Finally, it uses a Bayesian label model [1] to convert these noisy annotations into a single, large, clean dataset, which you can then use for training machine learning models. You can programmatically…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;26 points; 5 discussion replies on HN. &lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2104.09683/"&gt;Paper and source history&lt;/a&gt;.
