Accessing Keyer Data Management tools
If you have the View Training Data permission (given to System Admin and Business Admin permission groups by default), you can access the Keyer Data Management tools for a model:
Go to Library > Models.
Click on the name of the model you would like to view training data for.
Click the Field Identification or the Table Identification tab, depending on the type of training data you would like to view.
The Keyer Data Management Tools are located at the bottom of the Model Details page in the Training Documents card.
Navigating the Training Documents card
On a model's Model Details page, there is a Training Documents table, which lists all training documents for this model.
The Training Documents table shows the following information for each training document:
The training document's ID
The ID of the group of training documents. With training data analysis, the system automatically groups similar documents together. To learn more about grouping documents together, see Training Data Analysis and Guided Data Labeling.
The number of pages the document contains.
The date of the document's submission was created.
The training status of the document:
Always: The document will always be used to train the model.
Auto: The document will be used to train the model until the document’s scheduled deletion, based on the PII Data Deletion settings for your instance.
Never: The document will never be used in future model training, even if it hasn't been deleted as part of PII Data Deletion.
Loading: The document is currently being uploaded.
Ready to Annotate: The document has been uploaded successfully but has not been annotated yet.
The date the document is scheduled for deletion.
Each document also has one of the following Actions links:
Annotate – only available for documents that do not have any annotations.
Edit Annotations – only available for documents that have already been annotated.
You can filter the contents of the table by training document ID, group ID, number of pages, submission date, training status, and scheduled deletion. You can also search for documents by their IDs.
Selecting at least one training document lets you use the Actions drop-down menu. This drop-down menu has the following buttons:
Remove training documents – removes the selected training documents and their associated annotations.
Edit training status – lets you change the training status of the selected training documents that have been annotated. All unannotated training documents that you’ve selected will keep their current status.
Viewing and editing annotation data for a document
If you have the Edit Training Data permission (given to System Admin and Business Admin permission groups by default), you can access the Annotation page for each of a model's training documents.
On the Annotation page, you can review and edit the bounding boxes for the document, along with the document's training status. To access this page, click on the Actions link for a document in the Training Documents card.
Review field and table column annotations
Clicking the Actions link on the Field Identification tab redirects you to the Review Field Annotations section. In the Review Field Annotations section of the right-hand sidebar, you can view a list of the layout fields that are present in the document.
Clicking the Actions link on the Table Identification tab redirects you to the Review Table Column Annotations section. In the Review Table Column Annotations section of the right-hand sidebar, you can view a list of the layout table columns that are present in the document.
View and edit field annotations
To view and edit annotations for a document's fields:
Click on a field's name.
If a field has multiple occurrences, clicking on a field’s name will expand a list of all of the field’s occurrences on the page. In that list, click on an occurrence’s name.
If a field has multiple bounding boxes, clicking on a field’s name highlights all of the field’s bounding boxes on a document.
If a field has been added to the layout and is part of a live release but has not been annotated yet, the field is marked in yellow in the fields list.
To display annotation suggestions for unannotated documents, toggle the Display Suggestions setting to Enabled.
Note that you can enable the Display Suggestions setting if you’ve annotated at least 2-3 documents from a training documents group.
To learn more, see the “Step 3: Annotate Training Documents with Guidance” section in Training Data Analysis and Guided Data Labeling.
If needed, adjust the position or dimensions of the field's bounding box. To do so, you can:
Drag the box to a new position on the page.
Hover over another text entry on the page, and click on the predicted bounding box that appears.
Click and drag on the box boundaries to adjust the height or width of the box.
To learn more about Field Identification best practices, see Best Practices for Field ID Supervision and QA.
Additionally, draw bounding boxes for any new fields that haven’t been annotated yet and are marked in yellow in the fields list.
Additionally, you can also add and remove field occurrences. To add a field occurrence, follow the steps below:
Click Add another [field’s name].
2. Create a bounding box for the field’s occurrence.
To remove a field’s occurrence, click the Remove occurrence button (
) next to the occurrence’s name in the right-hand sidebar.
To capture additional text segments for a given field, you can add additional bounding boxes. To add an additional bounding box, follow the steps below:
a. Click Add another text segment.
b. Draw a bounding box for the additional text segment.
Note that you can repeat steps 1 and 2 until you identify all text segments of a field. To remove a field’s bounding box, select the bounding box and click its X button.
Click Save Changes.
To view annotations for specific fields only:
Expand the Show Fields drop-down menu at the top of the page.
In the drop-down list that appears, select the fields whose bounding boxes you would like to review.
View and edit table column annotations
To view and edit annotations for a document's table column:
Click on a table column’s name to highlight the respective table cells on the page.
Table columns’ names that are marked in yellow in the table columns lists have not been annotated yet.
To display annotation suggestions for unannotated documents, click the Display available suggestions button.
Note that you can click the Display available suggestions button while manually identifying table cells if you’ve annotated at least 2-3 documents from a training documents group.
To learn more, see the “Step 3: Annotate Training Documents with Guidance” section in Training Data Analysis and Guided Data Labeling.
If needed, adjust the position or dimensions of the cells’ bounding boxes. To do so, you can:
Click and drag the corners of the box until it contains all of the cell’s content.
Adjust the row’s height by using the blue pill button.
Identify new cells by creating bounding boxes.
Identify multiple cells of the same column with a click-and-drag motion.
To learn more about Table Identification best practices, see Best Practices for Table Identification and Table Transcription and the section “Step 2 of 2: Finish Table Identification” from Table ID Supervision.
Click Save Changes.
For nested tables, to switch between a document’s child and parent tables, use the drop-down menu at the top of the right-hand sidebar.
To view annotations for specific columns only:
Expand the Visible Columns drop-down menu at the top of the page.
In the drop-down list that appears, select the columns whose bounding boxes you would like to review.
Training Status
In the Training Status section of the right-hand sidebar, you can change the training status of the document. This option lets you indicate whether the document should always be used in training or if it should never be used in the model's training again. By selecting one of these options, you can override the PII Data Deletion settings for individual documents.
Building a set of training documents
If you indicate that individual documents should always be used in the model's training, you, in effect, create a stable, predictable set of documents that will be used across all trainings.
Change a document’s training status
To change the training status for a document:
Select one of the following options:
Auto: (Default) The document will be used for training until it is deleted, based on the PII Data Deletion settings for your instance
Always: The document will always be used to train the model, even after it is scheduled for deletion under the PII Data Deletion rules for your instance.
Never: The document will never be used in future model training, even if it hasn't been deleted as part of PII Data Deletion.
Click Save Changes.
