Hi, I’ve amended the document to include a subsection on “context”; and a subsection on “But, why not include adjectives or names of items as well…” I’ll likely make amendments to the document over the coming days.

I'd be interested to learn your thoughts on testing in context. Take your two dogs image example. "Two dogs running after a ball" may be a pretty good description for it, but "Bob and Jack playing during vacation" may very well be a good alternative too, depending on the context. How do you enable testing such things, without making the test extremely permissive? >> >> I think having a big dataset to train machine learning algorithms on for testing accessibility would be a great boon to the world.

It is not perfect (and might be subject to minor changes up until 30th Oct 2021), but it has stimulated a lot of thought in my own mind, and I hope it does in yours. It also shows that metrics (such as SPICE), which are available in the broader AI/ML/CV research world, might prove useful when considering things we are looking to solve in the field of web accessibility. >> >> Very best regards >> >> Alistair >> >> Alistair Garrison >> CEO / Founder Accesseo Limited >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> -- >> Wilco Fiers >> Axe-core & Axe-linter product owner - WCAG 3 Project Manager - Facilitator ACT Task Force >> >>
