This guide focuses on how class boundaries, sampling rhythm, and delivery summaries create stable annotation quality.

Turn class boundaries into executable rules
Effective rules should work for new team members too instead of living only inside experienced heads.
Give every class one positive and one negative example.
Write counterexamples for similar classes.
Sync rule changes immediately.
Sample high-risk areas first
Uniform sampling often misses hard cases. Risk-based sampling fits real projects much better.
Prioritize occluded and blurry samples.
Prioritize high-value classes.
Prioritize tasks affected by recent rule changes.
Make review feedback reusable in the next round
If review stays verbal and informal, the same mistakes usually return.
Separate missed labels, wrong classes, and boundary issues.
Turn recurring mistakes into short retrospectives.
Send rework back to the responsible member.
FAQ
Should sampling ratios stay fixed? Not necessarily. Covering high-risk samples matters more than fixed ratios.
Why do delivery summaries affect quality? Because quality must be explained externally, not only controlled internally.
