Features of Human ScienceFeature

• 
  Requirements definition that determines the success of the project

  There are various types and methods of data annotation for developing AI models for autonomous driving. The tools and file formats used can vary greatly. Our Project Managers utilize their experience and knowledge to propose the best annotation methods. Through consultation and agreement with our clients, we define each requirement and concretize the necessary work processes to achieve project success.
• 
  Utilize the latest data annotation tools

  At our company, we are constantly introducing the latest data annotation tools to achieve further improvement and stabilization of quality. With the latest tools, it is possible for our clients to check progress and review deliverables after the project has started. Additionally, using the check function, it is possible to mechanically detect any omissions or common mistakes. Real-time communication with data annotators allows for immediate consideration and dissemination of any additional standards or rules after the project has started.
• 
  Also supports project operations in offshore

  To develop AI models for autonomous driving, a huge amount of annotated data is necessary. In order to secure the maximum amount of data within cost limitations, our company has a track record of utilizing overseas resources at offshore locations. We are also able to provide English support from temporary work, allowing for smoother project progress. Even for offshore projects, management such as aligning with the client's understanding and quality control will be handled in Japan. We offer high-quality data annotation at a low cost, equivalent to domestic services.
• 
  Complete Information Security

  With our tool AnnoFab, which we use in our company, it is possible to build a system that cannot save data on local machines. It is also possible to restrict the work location by limiting the IP address. When sharing data in the cloud, we also support the use of highly secure services such as Amazon S3, as well as other services contracted by our clients.
• 
  Completed trial
  Our contracted data annotators are engaged

  At our company, we do not outsource work through crowdsourcing, but instead directly contract with reliable data annotators. While crowdsourcing may seem cost-effective at first glance, it can lead to unstable quality and unexpected cost overruns due to additional revisions and verification work.
  When hiring data annotators at our company, we always conduct interviews and trials. Even after the project has started, we ensure thorough communication to share important points and clarify any ambiguities, resulting in high-quality data annotation.

Frequently Asked QuestionsFAQ

I am worried if we can have the right personnel to work on the project.

At Human Science, we verify the work content before starting a project and assign personnel that are suitable for its characteristics. By assigning resources directly contracted by our company, we achieve effective team formation that utilizes the aptitude and past experiences of each member.

I am worried that the participating members will change every time because it is an intermittent project. Can we have the same project manager and team manager assigned to this project?
