Troubleshooting
5 min readFixing low symbol recognition accuracy
If recognition is below 70% on your trade, the active-learning loop hasn't seen enough of your drawings yet.
If the recognizer is missing more than 30% of symbols on your trade after the first few projects, the per-org model hasn't accumulated enough training data.
Diagnose first
- Go to Symbols → Training dashboard.
- Check the per-trade recognition trend. Is it climbing or flat?
- Check 'Annotations contributed'. Below 100 in your trade means the training set is too small.
Accelerate
- Walk through three legacy projects and confirm/reject every queue item — fastest way to add 100+ annotations
- Use the bulk-import tool: upload a folder of legends + reference projects, the recognizer extracts symbol crops automatically
- Mark your most-used symbols as 'priority' in the Symbol Library — the trainer weights them more heavily
- Wait one retrain cycle — Saturdays at 02:00 UTC
