Tamr Core suggests categories for each of the records in a categorization project. The Categorization column on the categorized records page shows the suggestion followed by an indication of the level of confidence for the suggestion: High , Medium , or Low .

High-impact records are indicated by yellow lightning bolts. Your feedback on these records has the most impact on training the machine learning model.

To help categorize each record correctly, you provide feedback by:

• Upvoting suggestions when you agree
• Downvoting suggestions when you disagree
• Suggesting a new category

You can also add a comment to provide context or to explain for your responses.

Some records may already have feedback from your colleagues. You can investigate this feedback and provide your own evaluation.

Reviewing Assigned Records

To review records assigned to you:

1. Navigate to the categorized records page in a categorization project by selecting the option to the right of Categories. (The name of this page is project-specific and reflects what it is you are categorizing.)

2. (Optional) Filter to your assigned records. Typically, each reviewer is assigned a small subset of the records in the dataset.
3. (Optional) Select Configure Table at the bottom of the page to configure column visibility.
4. To review details about a record, including the feedback provided by other team members, select >> next to the suggested category. The Details panel open.
   Tip: You can also open the Details panel by moving your mouse over the left edge of a record, checking the checkbox to select the record, and then selecting Open details

In the example that follows, Details show that the categorization suggested by Tamr Core was upvoted by one colleague, and a different categorization was suggested and upvoted by other colleagues. Details also provides comments and other information about the record.

Note: In this example, "(+1 other)" appears next to that category name because a team member suggested a different category than the one suggested by Tamr Core.
