Reply to comment by zaptrem in [D] Mtruk alternatives for extracting information out of text by elcric_krej

Not the one doing the downvoting, but, isn't that same thing?

Validating a sample and having validation samples, when your problem has a "known solution" or is close to, is equivalent.

Not your fault, but it seems reasonable to interpret "validation samples" as samples for your validation set (e.g., you wanted people to manually label something for your training/validation data).

Yes... that's the correct interpretation, hence why I need mturk, to get people to manually label (well extract) something from my training/validation data.

I'm still rather confused about where the misunderstanding is.

Validate samples = you feed completed outputs to humans and ask them to click correct/incorrect.

Validation samples = you all humans to manually complete the task themselves. Slow and expensive.
