Kili label types

Kili internal label types (for example, for use with Kili SDK) change throughout an asset lifecycle. A label can be either or:

• Default
• Review
• Prediction
• Inference

Default

The DEFAULT type is applied to a label when:

• Annotations are submitted on unlabeled assets (status = To Do).
• Edits are submitted on labeled assets (status = Labeled).

Review

The REVIEW type is applied to a label during the review process:

• To assets with To review status when reviewing through project Queue page.
• To assets with Labeled, To review or Reviewed status when reviewing through the "Explore" view.

Prediction

The PREDICTION type can be applied to a label when annotations made by a model (pre-annotations or real predictions) are uploaded through API.
Unlike with INFERENCE, PREDICTION-type annotations are displayed on asset during the labeling process.
Before submitting, labelers can confirm what model produced, edit, and/or add new annotations.

Inference

The INFERENCE type can be applied to a label when annotations made by a model (pre-annotations or real predictions) are uploaded through API.
Unlike with PREDICTIONS, INFERENCE-type annotations are not displayed on asset during the labeling process.
INFERENCE-type labels are used for IoU (intersection over union) calculation if you want to benchmark your model predictions, or labelers' work quality against ground truth.
