Data annotation tools enable users to enhance the value of data by adding attribute tags. The key benefit of using the data annotation feature is that the combination of data attributes enables a user to manage the data definition at a single location and eliminates the need to rewrite similar rules in multiple places. In general, the data annotation attributes are categorized into three parts, namely modeling attributes, display attributes, and validation attributes. Modeling attributes are used to specify the relationship between classes and the intended use of a member/class. Display attributes help define the display of data from a member/class in the UI. Validation attributes help enforce validation rules. In terms of techniques, data annotation techniques are categorized into AI API-driven data annotation, data-driven data annotation, usage-based data annotation, crowdsourcing data annotation, and manual data annotation.

Rapid Penetration of AI and Machine Learning

The advent of big data is expected to drive the growth of the artificial intelligence market as a large volume of data is required to be recorded, stored, and analyzed. The need for managing and improving the computational models related to big data has become a primary concern among end users and this concern is enabling them to adopt artificial intelligence solutions at a faster pace. The adoption of artificial intelligence is expected to significantly boost the demand for data annotation tools as the annotated data acts as a catalyst to train AI models and machine learning systems in critical areas such as speech recognition and image recognition. Data annotation offers AI its strength by directly providing data that is relevant to determining future outcomes and decision-making. Many public and private organizations gather domain-specific information required for training AI models, comprising data from different applications such as national intelligence, fraud detection, marketing, medical informatics, and cybersecurity. Data annotation enables the labeling of such unorganized and unsupervised data by continuously improving the accuracy of each set of data.

Restraints:

Lack of Skilled Labor and High Cost Associated With Manual Annotation of Complex Images

The inaccuracy of data annotation acts as a restraint to the growth of the market. A given image may have low resolution and can include multiple objects. The primary challenge faced by the data annotation tools market is precise output. The issues, such as data inaccuracy, in the quality of the output, are to be minimized. Manual labeling is not correctly labeled in some cases and the time to detect such labels may vary, which further adds cost to the enterprise. However, with the development of sophisticated algorithms, the accuracy of automated data annotation tools is expected to improve, thus, reducing the dependency on manual annotation and the cost of the tools soon. The data annotation tools are required to be efficient and reliable for deriving valuable insights. Small and medium-scale enterprises sometimes encounter concerns about low marginal operations and an increased need for better quality. Additionally, a technologically advanced tool is required to be affordable and capable of providing high-quality solutions, in addition to being simple and easy to understand.
