Chimp&See Progress

  • AnLand by AnLand moderator

    Hi all,

    just a brief note about the progress on the active sites: since yesterday evening we do not have any inactive videos for Restless Star anymore. That means, all videos from this site (still a considerable amount) are in circulation now and will be classified by all volunteers together. I think, it will still take some time to finish them all in accordance with the retirement rules, but nevertheless each day many videos will retire and be taken out of circulation.

    A nice side effect of this is that more and more videos from Aged Violet will go into circulation and we will hopefully have fewer repeats from this site. Until now - due to the sheer size of Restless Star - only a couple of hundred videos from Aged Violet have been active at any time and you might have noticed that we all classify basically the same videos several hours or days apart. Of course, each video needs to be classified by several volunteers, but there is not enough room for exciting discoveries when everybody sees just the same, don't you think? That will change now!

    Plenty of new material will get into the classification pipeline and in the near future maybe even a new site will be opened.

    Thanks to everybody who helped and will do to get Restless Star finished!

    Thank you!
