The permissions above apply both at the organization and workspace level. Organization-level permissions apply to all projects across all workspaces. Workspace-level permissions only apply to projects within a given workspace.
Warning: Exercise caution when granting org-level permissions. Recipients of such permissions will have visibility into all projects without exceptions. Double-check to ensure you’re not exposing sensitive information to the wrong users.
Next build
Review science assertions for the next build and trigger a rebuild in this section.
This section contains:
Science assertion summary
Rebuild button
Estimated rebuild time
Science assertion summary
Rebuild button
This button triggers a rebuild of your project.
The option to rebuild is only available if there are changes that require rebuilding, such as:
There are pending science assertions
There is a pending science update
There is a pending project language change
Estimated rebuild time
As the name suggests, this is a rough estimation of the time it will take for your project to rebuild.
Language
You have the ability to change the language Daylight uses to analyze your dataset in this section.
Open the dropdown menu and select your desired language. Click on the “update at next build” button to queue it up for the next build. Daylight will then show you a summary of the language change in the tile.
warning: Changing the language of your project alters how Daylight analyzes your data. Do not change the language unless you are sure the current language setting is wrong.
Page overview
Science assertions
The Science Assertions feature allows subject matter experts to assert their knowledge and expertise into the construction of Daylight’s language model. Expert users can make adjustments by instructing QuickLearn, our core AI engine, to ignore specific concepts, for example, which results in those concepts being excluded from the resulting language model.
Using the Science Assertions feature does change the fundamental ways by which a project is analyzed. Sometimes that’s important for specific datasets, but it can also introduce bias if not done carefully.
Ignore
This assertion removes a concept from the available list of concepts for the project. For example the concept “drink” might be unhelpful in a beverage review dataset because all of the data relates to drinks. In this case, it might be a good idea to ignore “drink” so more interesting concepts will be easier to notice. If ‘drink’ is not a concept, the application will continue to ignore that assertion during rebuild.
Edit button
This button opens the assertion edit modal where you can edit science assertions.
Rebuild button
This button triggers a rebuild of your project.
Assertion edit modal
This assertion removes a concept from the available list of concepts for the project. For example the concept ‘drink’ might be unhelpful in a beverage review dataset because all of the data relates to drinks. In this case, it might be a good idea to ignore ‘drink’ so more interesting concepts will be easier to notice. If ‘drink’ is a concept, Daylight will remove it from the list of concepts during rebuild. If ‘drink’ is not a concept, the application will ignore that assertion during rebuild.
Assertion edit modal
This interface enables you to add, delete and edit assertions.
The main section are:
1Current build
2Assertion editor
3Next build
4Save & close
Current build
This is the list of science assertions used to build or rebuild your project with.
Next build
This is the list of assertions queued up for the next build. They will be in effect after your project rebuilds.
Assertion editor
This is where you input new assertions and delete recently added assertions.
It has three main parts:
1Assertions list
2Add button
3Assertion input field
Assertion input field
Type words to ignore in this text field. As you type, Daylight will present you with a list of auto-suggested concepts. Click on an auto-suggested concept to add it to your ignore list. Hitting the enter key or clicking the add button also adds the term you typed to your assertions list.
The auto-suggested concepts are the most prevalent concepts in your project. Your concept does not have to be in the list and you’re welcome to type freely.
Delete a term from the assertions list by clicking on the trash icon next to it.
Assertions list
Ignore terms populate here. The most recent goes on top. Concepts have a trash can icon next to them. Clicking on the icon will remove that concept from the list, so it will not be in the next build.
Next build
The main parts are:
1Reset button
2Next build list
Reset button
This button removes all the pending assertions for the next build.
Next build list
This section displays the list of pending assertions for the next build. Daylight will execute these assertions during rebuild if they are valid.
Save and close
As the name suggests, this button saves your new science assertions to your project. It then closes the modal.
Valid ignore assertions
An ignore assertion is valid if the term you’re trying to ignore is a concept in your project. A term might not be a concept if it never comes up in your dataset. Or if Daylight considers it to be insignificant to the dataset as a whole. If that is the case, there will be no functional change to the project, though the assertion will be remembered and apply if more data is uploaded which contains the concept.
