Note for our final evaluation

@yilun_jin

I would like to clarify it more precisely.

The deadline for making an eligible submissions: July 10th 23:59 UTC - is that correct?
If we submit before this deadline and the run finishes afterwards, it is an eligible submission.
If we submit after this deadline, the run will not be eligible

Is that correct?

The deadline of 12th of July is for selecting our top submission, but the submission has to be eligible and has to be submitted before July 10th 23:59 UTC?

Note for our final evaluation

Hello @yilun_jin

thanks for sharing the process about the final submissions. I have some follow up questions and suggestions:

Who will you send out the google sheet to? We do not want to miss the email. We were not sure, if you send it only to the team captain or to the full team. Can you send it out to the every team member, please?

When will you send it out? Can you share an announcement in the forum on the KDD competition, when the email was sent? In that way, we can double check out inbox.

Thanks a lot,
Best,
Benedikt

@snehananavati @dipam thanks for providing the team merger deadline.

Does AICrowd / the challenge account for the 5 submissions per task per team limit for team merger?

📝 Guidelines for Incorporating External Data

@snehananavati

thanks for providing more guidance. Can you clarify, can we crawl amazon.com and use data from it - given that crawling amazon is might against the terms of use of amazon.com?

Question about if we could use other information from the network, such as extra information from Amazon.com to train our model?

@dipam we are still waiting for clarification about this. This is really important and given that the competition ends in 15 days, we need a decision.

@snehananavati Can you provide information about the other discussion posts?

Clarification and More Information for Phase 2

Hello,

can the AICrowd/the hosts provide more information about phase 2 and clarify the setup?

The description states that phase-2 test will be released at a later stage. The competition will end on June 14th.

When will the host release the phase 2 datasets?
Is it one file for task1 and one file for task2?
Will the public LB still be available in phase 2?
We will submit the predictions with the same csv file format than in phase 1, is that correct?
