Challenge Neovision x Ens'IA 2022

Introduction

I organized this challenge with Hugo Cartigny and Neovision. We worked hard on this edition for almost an entire year.
There was approximately 50 participants for this edition.
Below is the official description of the challenge.

What is this challenge about?

This is an artificial intelligence challenge organized jointly by Neovision and Ens’IA. For the second edition of this challenge, participants had to create an AI, but don’t panic: Neovision coaches will were there to accompany them. There were also workshops to give them additional knowledge!

This challenge were for participants the opportunity to live a real AI project and to deepen their knowledge, but also and above all to have fun and to meet people

The previous year’s challenge was about OCR and had more than 30 participants divided into 12 teams that competed against each other. The best teams were rewarded with 6 Nvidia Jetson cards!

The 2022 edition

This year again, the goal remains the same: train the model that will make the best score on the dataset we provided participants. There this time were 45 participents divived into 20 teams ! 😍

The subject

We have chosen a topic that is close to our hearts: the environment
To be more precise, your task will be to produce a model capable of classifying different types of waste on images.
