What will happen in your session?

crowdAI is an open web platform designed to make data science and AI as accessible as possible in the form of open data challenges. In this workshop, we will show how the platform works, and what we do so that anyone, from beginners to experts, can collaboratively tackle difficult data problems using machine learning.

We will also demonstrate how simple it is to host a machine learning challenge, and launch an example challenge during the session.

We will present how we design challenges to be as inclusive, as easy to start, and as rewarding as possible. After over two years of activity, we have a large and lively community who help each other and collaborate on open data science challenges.

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

After a presentation of the crowdAI platform, we will open the discussion and brainstorm:

If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.

Projector only.
