About model-assisted labeling (MAL)
The Model-assisted labeling (MAL) workflow allows you to import computer-generated predictions (or simply annotations created outside of Labelbox) and load them as editable annotations on an asset. Using MAL for pre-labeling can be useful for speeding up the labeling process and supporting human labeling efforts.
Note
Model-assisted labeling is only available for Pro and Enterprise customers.
When an asset is loaded in the Editor, any imported annotations for that asset will show up as editable annotations. Imported annotations will appear when the asset is opened in the Editor as long as the following conditions are met:
Model-assisted labeling is on
The imported annotations are assigned to a Data Row
The asset has not already been labeled in the Labelbox Editor
Currently, if a labeler skips or submits a label without making any changes first, the timer will not start and the duration time recorded will be 0 seconds. This logic may be revised in a future update.
The Model-assisted labeling workflow described on this page is only supported in the new Editor. If you are still using the legacy Editor, please refer to our Legacy editor docs.
