BYU Linking Labs Reverse Indexing Update
If you haven't tried this application yet take a few minutes to watch the video and do a page or two. it is easy and it helps the computer learning for future indexing projects.
The BYU Linking Labs posted this message earlier today.
Many of our ancestors were occupational pioneers. Wouldn't it be great to help people see if there ancestor was the Black police officer or the first female lawyer in a particular town? To make this possible, we are indexing the occupation, industry, and education field in the 1940 census. Our machine learning algorithm is doing really well most of time but needs some help from human insight. We've created a short video that shows how you can help. We are making a huge push on this project over the next few weeks so that we can deliver the data for these fields to FamilySearch.
