Provide animated GIF showing an active learning experiment #33

Closed chschroeder closed 11 months ago

chschroeder commented 1 year ago

Feature description

For the README.md, I would like to have an animated gif which shows the progress of an active learning experiment. The script might also be put in the repository (under /docs likely?) so that we can recerate it in the future.

How should this look like? I am imagining at least a learning curve (possibly with some additional information on the side).

Expectations This issue is solved by providing a small script and a gif, and by including the gif in the README.md.

Motivation

This would greatly benefit the readme and help people to grasp what this repo is about.

Hi @SaketKaswa20,

Thank you for taking the initiative!

I am not sure how to interpret your PR. You simply linked to an existing image which seems to be from here: https://jamesmanning-99060.medium.com/i-frequently-mention-how-technology-is-changing-rapidly-and-it-is-necessary-to-place-yourself-in-18b913d235c0 (Also: You did not mention this and the linked image is not really about active learning.)

It seems that there was a misunderstanding:

Expectations This issue is solved by providing a small script and a gif, and by including the gif in the README.md.

The idea is to provide a script that builds an animated active learning curve (probably using matplotlib). The curve's data is generated by applying small-text on a default text classification benchmark.

Feel free to give it a try.
