The Concept
The next edition of the ACE Datathon is coming on May, 8th-9th!
Join us to demonstrate your skills in a real Machine Learning challenge and win tons of physical & cash prizes!
The COVID-19 situation imposes great restrictions on all of us and it is our joint responsibility to ensure that the virus is prevented from spreading even further! However, since we believe that human interactions are essential to have a fun coding weekend, we decided the event to take place in a hybrid online/offline format in and around Zurich. Right from the beginning and at the core of all of our planning is the human interaction and all the fun it is accompanied with!
You will register together with at least one other person and work in team sizes of 3 or 4 persons in total for more than 24 hours on the Machine Learning challenges we prepared for you. The people you choose to register with will be your offline team mates, so ask your flat mate, spouse or friend whom you are meeting anyway on a regular basis!
Besides the two main challenges from which your team chooses exactly one, we offer plenty of different fun side challenges, masses of food & snacks, expert sessions to improve your coding and presentation skills, and, and, and ….!
