Abstract

A system and method for implementing an image annotation platform are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: registering a plurality of labelers to which annotation tasks are assigned; assigning annotation tasks to the plurality of labelers; determining if the annotation tasks can be closed or re-assigned to the plurality of labelers; aggregating annotations provided by the plurality of labelers as a result of the closed annotation tasks; evaluating a level of performance of the plurality of labelers in providing the annotations; and calculating payments for the plurality of labelers based on the quantity and quality of the annotations provided by the plurality of labelers.
