Getting started

Check out the example-submission model and the pilot-1 dataset repos.

The example-submission demonstrates how submissions for the challenge are structured. You will package your detector model as a containerized web service that serves a simple JSON API. You will then upload your detector to DSRI's testing platform, where it will be evaluated on private datasets.

The pilot-1 dataset is an example of the data format you can expect in the challenge. The pilot task data are public and scores on pilot tasks will not count toward challenge rankings.
