Timeline:

Start date: 28 August 2020, 00.01am UTC
End date: 20 September 2020, 11.59pm UTC
Result Announced: 25 September 2020

Rules:

  • Knowledge gained from the coursework must be implemented.
  • Project must have been created during the Azure scholarship period.
  • Registration form must be completed.
  • Project must be submitted before the deadline.
  • One can participate in multiple projects.
  • Project members' names should be clearly mentioned in the project proposal.
  • Make sure your submission is in usable format, as it will be accessed by the judges.
  • All projects submitted to this competition must record original work which has not been done or used previously. Plagiarism is - grounds for disqualification.

Submission:

Participants must submit the following materials:

  • Project proposal: Markdown file (ReadMe.md) which explains the project and the team: Team members’ name; what the project does; who the project is for; used technology, etc.
  • Project Implementation: Juyter notebook and/or pdf file and/or Presentation video (1 to 3 minute) pitch.

Guidelines:

Please structure your submission using the following steps:

  • Create a directory with your slack username in the project folder. If you're new to GitHub, you can follow this tutorial by @jhonatantirado
  • For implementation, include a Jupyter notebook (if you are using) or a report (in pdf format) that demonstrates a run of your code showing printed output, graphs, etc.
  • Structure your code into one or more modules in that directory
    • Code should be well-documented. This will help viewers to understand why and what you have done.
  • If you are using Jupyter notebook please make sure about the following points:
    • Code cells in the notebook should only call functions defined in your modules. Please do not include any actual code logic in the notebook itself.
    • The notebooks should be well-documented. Ideally, each code cell should be preceded by a Markdown cell describing why you have included the code cell. It can also include comments on the output generated, eg. describing features of a graph. These text cells should be more high-level than actual code comments, describing the narrative or thought process behind your steps.
  • If you are not able to finish the code by the deadline, include your idea, design and implementation strategy in the report.
  • If you are using Azure ML Designer: add the screenshots of the design, results, diagrams in the pdf report or Jupyter notebook.
  • Free Azure Credits:
