Title: A Systematic Study of Behavioral Cloning for Scientific Data Annotation

Abstract:
arXiv:2606.07568v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Scientific data annotation, such as tracking animals in video or proofreading neural reconstructions, remains bottlenecked by the "last mile" problem: even with strong automation, verification and correction consume substantial human effort. Standard approaches train models to directly predict annotations, discarding the rich supervision in how experts navigate, click, verify, and correct. We introduce a framework for studying behavioral cloning
