Meet the winners of the Where's Whale-do Challenge
Meet the winners of the Where's Whale-do challenge, and learn about the deep learning models they developed to identify individual Cook Inlet beluga whales from images.
Meet the winners of the Run-way Functions Challenge
Meet the participants who built the best models for predicting airport configurations for 10 U.S. airports! Understanding the complex interactions between air traffic, weather, and airspace operations can help make air travel more smooth and efficient for everyone.
How Classifiable Is It? (Part 2)
Classification algorithms give us a lower bound on how well we can distinguish categories; maybe machine learning competitions give us a way to estimate an upper bound.
