Active Learning for Text Classification in Python

67
/ 100
Established

This project helps you efficiently categorize large amounts of text data when you only have a small number of already-labeled examples. You provide an initial set of labeled text and a larger pool of unlabeled text, and the system intelligently suggests which additional pieces of text you should label next to get the most accurate categorization model possible. This is ideal for researchers, analysts, or anyone who needs to classify text but has limited resources for manual labeling.

638 stars. Actively maintained with 1 commit in the last 30 days. Available on PyPI.

Use this if you need to classify text into categories but find traditional manual labeling too time-consuming or expensive for large datasets.

Not ideal if you already have a massive, perfectly labeled dataset or if your task doesn't involve text classification.
