We're here to bring you a brief recap of the most recent and relevant events at Toloka. Let's have a look at what we've all been up to in our digital hive.
Toloka has come a long way since its inception in 2014, and we felt it was time to replace our old daisy logo with a new one. After carefully considering a number of different options, we opted for an original dandelion fractal that also resembles a funky bouquet of popsicles.
We wanted to keep up with how the platform has developed and reflect the values of both sides: Tolokers and requesters. We're convinced that our new vibrant design does just that. We hope you like it, too!
If you're eager to learn the details, the logo's full journey can be traced here.
One of this spring's highlights was being invited to participate in NAACL-HLT 2021. The Toloka team ran a hands-on tutorial, Crowdsourcing Natural Language Data at Scale. In addition, we've held three lively Crowd Science Seminars on the following topics:
Don't miss our upcoming seminars with even more industry secrets on their agenda. Seminars are held twice a month on Thursdays, and they are absolutely free!
We believe that knowledge and education pave the way to everything else. This is why we continually develop courses related to the fields of machine learning and crowdsourcing.
Tired of the busywork of creating crowdsourcing projects? With Toloka's handy toolkit, you can reuse segments of code, easily train ML models, and take advantage of open-source features submitted by other contributors. This has already found its applications in image gathering, image segmentation, and SQuAD, and now the kit has more how-to examples for NLP, image classification, and geolocation.
Check out recent interviews with Toloka's founder and CEO, Olga Megorskaya. Analytics India Magazine published "Why Are Data Labelling Firms Eyeing Indian Market?", a business-oriented discussion that examines why and how Toloka plans to further penetrate the Indian market by recruiting more Tolokers from the subcontinent than ever before.
On a different note, We-Are-Tech-Women published a personal journey piece titled "Inspirational Woman". In this interview, Olga talks about her road from an ordinary data labeler to Toloka's fully fledged bellwether, as well as how being a woman in the tech field still poses a challenge today.
That's it for now, until the next digest. To get all the news while it's hot, check out our blog and follow us on social media. And remember: we're always here to address your questions and concerns, so drop us a line. Stay tuned, stay AI'ed, and crowdsource away!
