When humans teach machines

A self‑service pipeline lets domain experts build sparse-topic text classifiers by: creating a visual query to find dense positives, extracting triage terms via a significance score to auto-label negatives from a production corpus, and training a fast SVM linear model with iterative active-labeling (stop after seven consecutive negatives). UX fixes include highlights and save‑for‑later. Deployment on Refinitiv runs in production with 300 topics in production and time per topic falling from 26 to 13 hours; alternatives explored: ELMo/BERT with hierarchical sentence‑level attention.
