Abstract

The main goal of the present paper is to describe a workflow management and quality assurance system used in the project of developing the Polish Sign Language (polski język migowy, PJM) Corpus currently underway at the University of Warsaw, Poland. To ensure a satisfactory level of annotation quality, we implemented an external issue tracking system as a basic tool to manage all stages of the annotation process: segmenting the video recording into individual signs, adding glosses to the delineated signs, segmenting text into clauses, translating text into written Polish and adding grammar tags marking different language phenomena. This paper offers a detailed overview of the procedures that we employ, illustrating the most important advantages and disadvantages of our approach and the choices we have made.
