An annotation criterion outlines the dimension along which you want to evaluate your responses. For example, you might want to evaluate responses based on their sentiment, grammar, and relevance. Each of these dimensions would be a separate criterion. Parea enables you to define continuous (e.g. from 1-10) and categorical (e.g. “good”, “neutral”, “bad”) annotations. While continuous annotations require you to define a minimum and maximum value, categorical annotations require you to define a list of possible labels with associated scores. You can define a criterion from the Annotation page or on any detailed logs page.

Setting up Criteria on the Annotation Page

When you navigate to the Annotation page, you can see the list of criteria that are available for annotation. You can add a new criterion by clicking on the Create New Criterion button on the top right of the page. After creating a criterion you can update its description, and min./max. values or mapping of categorical values to scores. Annotation Criteria Overview
