INCEpTION 29.6

INCEpTION is an extensible web-based collaborative environment for text annotation. It integrates machine-learning-based annotation support, knowledge base management and corpus building into a single comprehensive platform.

Note: Upgrading a Docker-based installation to this version will automatically adjust the UID/GID of all INCEpTION files to the new default. Refer to the section on Docker-based installation in the Admin Guide for details.

This is a bug fix release.

Dear Richard and Inception users, 
We noticed that sometimes Inception is slower to respond to annotation (or confirmation of recommended annotation). Is the number of lines in a document of possible influence on this? Any other ideas on what might slow the system down and how to fix it?
Many thanks, 
Sinai

the brat-based editors get notoriously slow if they have to render a larger number of lines.
How many lines are you showing at a time?

The easiest way to investigate would be if you could (privately / off-list) share an export of
the project with me including an explanation where you experience the slowness, so that I can
try reproducing it locally and see what is happening.

Cheers,

-- Richard
