It would be practical, if pressing ENTER would confirm the current value in the token-line like clicking on OK.

We will not distinguish between these two entity types in the annotation process.

Decide whether/when to turn this into a webapp.

Links to the facsimile must open in a new tab using target=_blank or will trigger the reload event alert

The delete function for the row in the position column is very handy. Since the annotation of links in the ID column requires the deletion of false links, we were wondering whether it would be possible to implement a similar function here, which does not delete the row but the content of the corresponding cell.

Here is one based on the Unicode subset from the OCR-D Guidelines.

Hello,

looking for a quick startup I stumbled over the links provided on top of both example.tsv-files (https://content.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/dc/PPN757123368-00000008/left,top,width,height/full/0/default.jpg, https://content.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/dc/PPN757123368-00000008/left,top,width,height/full/0/default.jpg) , but unfortunately, they are currently leading nowhere.

Use papaparse streaming with chunk https://www.papaparse.com/faq#streaming and preferably pagination using sentence boundaries (= newlines)

OCR results improve when archival master images are used. However, the image dimensions of the archival master images differ from the scaled-down images available on the web, which breaks the facsimile snippet feature.

Accordingly, we also need to transform the coordinates in cli.py.

If the manual marking of a sentence is made by mistake, marking the actual beginning does not set off continuous counting of the lines.

display image on mouseover over the whole row and not just by hovering over the "location" link

First testing sessions show that in case of OCR-correction, nearly every line needs to be altered. Therefore, navigation to the line above or below (up/down) without clicking would be crucial, including #24 . Navigation within the string by left/right arrow key as in the current version is very helpful.

Clicking on a string(token) should trigger different actions based on the different rows:

LOCATION: display facsimile snippet
POSITION: --undefined--
TOKEN: edit text (for OCR error correction)
NE-TAG: drop-down menu of supported NE-Tags
NE-EMB: drop-down menu of supported NE-Tags

change the yellow (for highlighting) to something less saturated/more pleasing to the eyes? consider design for color vision deficiency (even though I think it is not that important, since there are labels anyway)? ( https://projects.susielu.com/viz-palette )

First draft https://github.com/qurator-spk/neath/blob/master/docs/Annotation_Guidelines.md

We noticed that OCR corrections in combinations of strings with punctuations are not being saved (e.g. "31.") even if they were corrected several times.

...and throw a warning alert

I know we have been discussing this before, but annotating on the new documents has shown that OCR often leaves out several sections or lines. This makes it necessary to have an overview of the full page. We can display the page on ZEFYS in most cases, but it costs extra time and is not possible with the pages that are not online yet. Therefore, would it be possible to link the full scan (e.g. on the upper display of the filename in neath)?

It's already supported via keyboard command d l

About every 5th to 10th time, neither the snippet display on hover or clicking, nor the save button is working (Firefox environment). This left us with the need to pre-try the saving button before starting to annotate, because otherwise there is no chance to keep the changes made.

A funny thing occured in our annotation sessions, both to the student assistant and me on different browsers (Firefox and Edge) when we try to correct the word "Breslau" in the file 27646518_1892-07-05_21_335_005 (occurs two times in the third newspaper-column of the document: line 4599 and line 4834):

After annotating for a while (different time spans) the page seems to "reload" but it looks more like a flicker than a reload.
The tags can not longer be accessed, the NERs can no longer be edited. By saving at this point and reopening the file, the facsimile snippet does no longer appear, even though saving and editing are possible (but useless without the snippet). This can be fixed by re-opening NEATH over and over until Snippet is visible again.

It would improve usability a lot if the image snippet would always be displayed vertically aligned to the row with the corresponding token text.

We noticed that ending parts of the plain text (OCR) of the newspaper page in the example.tsv were missing after saving the annotation result of each session (see different states of the file attached). We couldn't figure out the pattern yet - our best guess is, that its connected to the split/merge function.

For testing purposes on annotating events.

it would be desirable to display the snippets in the left column upon hovering over their location (saves a lot of clicking)

Sometimes it is necessary to either merge or split tokens, e.g. due to segmentation errors.

There are 2 basic operations that should be supported here:

a) merge: concatenates the text content of the current row with that of the above row, deletes the row and updates the offsets

b) split: adds a new row below with the text content of the current row copied there and updates the offsets

in order to remain as compatible as possible to the HIPE Shared Task data format, it would be desirable that the start-sentence functionality inserts a newline to mark the sentence boundaries.

(actually, the newline must contain 10x \t to retain the proper column structure)

Document our processing pipeline:

• textline extraction @sbb_textline_detector
• word segmentation + OCR @ocrd_tesserocr
• Tokenization @SoMaJo
• Pretagging @sbb_ner

It would be preferable to retain the line OCR confidence scores in the tsv and do the color coding within neat rather than include the hex color code.

As of 57b6b7d, we don't require it as an anchor anymore, so could as well hide this to save screen estate (it carries no relevant information either).

...for uncertain/yet to decide entity types

In the current version, there are 30 lines shown at a time which avoids a full view unless the browser screen is zoomed down to 60%. A reduction to appr. 15 lines combined with the aligned image snippet #26 would improve usability by a great deal.

For continuous work on one .tsv document in different sessions, it would be handy to be able to mark the progress within that document.
This could fx be realized through an additional column which places a visual marker (e.g. arrow icon) in a selected row by clicking on it.

The TO DO tag is very helpful to mark ambiguous cases in the NER annoation, maybe it would be possible to establish a similar option for the marking of ambiguous links for discussion in the annoation team. This would preferably be a free text cell located next to the ID.
