Participation Policy

Submission policy

Teams must submit their solution in the form of a docker image together with a manuscript describing their solution. Teams are strongly encouraged to release their implementation and the trained models on platforms like GitHub. A reference to a public implementation in the submitted manuscript will positively impact peer review and increase the chances for an award.

Level of user interaction

Only fully automatic algorithms are considered valid for this challenge.

Usage of additional training data

Non-public data is allowed if published before the winning teams' proclamation to ease reproducibility. If the data is not made public and the team reaches outstanding performance, we will award the team with a special mention.

Participation policies for members of the organizers' institutes.

Members of organizing institutes are allowed to participate in the challenge but are not eligible for the awards and will not be listed in the leaderboard.

Award Policy
