Human-annotated quality scores used to train the PCQA model may suffer from potential biases and limitations that can impact the model's performance and generalizability. Some common biases include subjective interpretations of quality, inconsistencies in annotation criteria among annotators, and inherent cultural or personal biases in assessing aesthetic quality.
To mitigate these biases and limitations, several strategies can be implemented:
Diverse Annotation Sources: Incorporate annotations from a diverse set of annotators with varying backgrounds and perspectives to reduce individual biases and ensure a more comprehensive evaluation of quality.
Annotation Guidelines: Develop clear and standardized annotation guidelines to ensure consistency in quality assessment criteria across annotators. Providing detailed instructions and examples can help reduce ambiguity and subjective interpretations.
Quality Control: Implement quality control measures such as inter-annotator agreement checks and regular calibration sessions to monitor and maintain annotation quality.
Bias Detection: Utilize bias detection techniques to identify and mitigate potential biases in the annotated data. This can involve analyzing annotation patterns and discrepancies to address any systematic biases.
Adversarial Training: Incorporate adversarial training techniques to make the model robust to biases in the training data. By exposing the model to adversarial examples that mimic biased annotations, it can learn to generalize better to unseen data.
By implementing these strategies, the PCQA model can be trained on high-quality, unbiased data, leading to more reliable and accurate quality assessments.
