1. A method of executing a computer program using a processor of a user terminal to infer attributes of a data set or attributes of a plurality of recognizers configured to label the data set, the method comprising the steps of: receiving, by the processor, the data set as labeled data set having tallies of each of a plurality of label voting patterns, each of the label voting patterns representing a combination of labels, each of the labels within the combination resulting from analysis of the data set by a different recognizer of the plurality, each of the tallies representing the number of times that a particular label voting pattern resulted from analysis of the data set by the plurality of recognizers; constructing, by the processor, an inference equation for each of the plurality of label voting patterns in terms of statistical parameters and the tallies, wherein the statistical parameters indicate a probability of an observable event in the labeled data set; calculating, by the processor, values for the statistical parameters based on the inference equation for each of the plurality of label voting patterns; and calculating, by the processor, the attributes of the data set or the attributes of the plurality of recognizers based on the values of the statistical parameters.

The method of claim 1 , further comprising: ensuring receipt of a minimum number of recognizers required to infer the attributes of the data set or the recognizers, the step of ensuring further comprising: receiving at least three recognizers; determining a plurality of concurrence factors for pairings of the recognizers that have been received; calculating an effective number of recognizers that have been received based on the plurality of concurrence factors; determining whether the effective number of recognizers is less than the minimum number of recognizers; and, if so, receiving at least one additional recognizer.
