End-to-End Annotator Bias Approximation on Crowdsourced Single-Label Sentiment Analysis
Sentiment analysis is often a crowdsourcing task prone to subjective labels given by many annotators. It is not yet fully understood how the annotation bias of each annotator can be modeled correctly with state-of-the-art methods. However, resolving annotator bias precisely and reliably is the key to understand annotators' labeling behavior and to successfully resolve corresponding individual misconceptions and wrongdoings regarding the annotation task. Our contribution is an explanation and improvement for precise neural end-to-end bias modeling and ground truth estimation, which reduces an undesired mismatch in that regard of the existing state-of-the-art. Classification experiments show that it has potential to improve accuracy in cases where each sample is annotated only by one single annotator. We provide the whole source code publicly and release an own domain-specific sentiment dataset containing 10,000 sentences discussing organic food products. These are crawled from social media and are singly labeled by 10 non-expert annotators.

Capturing Perspectives of Crowdsourced Annotators in Subjective Learning Tasks
Supervised classification heavily depends on datasets annotated by humans. However, in subjective tasks such as toxicity classification, these annotations often exhibit low agreement among raters. Annotations have common…
ClassificationFairnessRanking annotators for crowdsourced labeling tasks
With the advent of crowdsourcing services it has become quite cheap and reasonably effective to get a dataset labeled by multiple annotators in a short amount of time. Various methods have been proposed to estimate the c…
Correcting Annotator Bias in Training Data: Population-Aligned Instance Replication (PAIR)
Models trained on crowdsourced labels may not reflect broader population views, because those who work as annotators do not represent the population. We propose Population-Aligned Instance Replication (PAIR), a method to…
False Discovery Rate Control and Statistical Quality Assessment of Annotators in Crowdsourced Ranking
With the rapid growth of crowdsourcing platforms it has become easy and relatively inexpensive to collect a dataset labeled by multiple annotators in a short time. However due to the lack of control over the quality of t…
