Finalists (Top 10): Certification from organizers
Same as previous years, our healthcare AI datathon is to cultivate collaborations between healthcare and data science experts. We encourage each cross-disciplinary team to propose a problem statement addressing an actual clinical pain point. Teams are tasks to produce some preliminary results to validate the feasibilities and clinical impact of their proposed solution over the period of the datathon. The organizers will be providing a number of real-world datasets, covering a wide spectrum of healthcare data ranging from Electronic Medical Records, Clinical Text to Medical Images (Details can refer to the Data page). The organizers will also support the teams with certain computational powers through cloud services. The best teams stand a chance to win up to SGD 20,000 cash and credit prizes.
Start: 1 Sep to 1 Nov 2021
- Abstract (Problem Statment) submission with initial team members (if any)
- Data scientists/machine learning experts registration (matching will start once abstracts are selected)
Round 1: 1 Nov to 15 Nov 2021
Abstract (Problem Statement) Selection: to be announced by 15 Nov 2021
Round 2: 15 Nov 2021 to 26 Nov 2021
- Team forming for teams still recruiting members
- Team member confirmation by 26 Nov 2021
Datathon:3 to 5 Dec 2021
Final Presentation & Judging: 05 Dec 2021
The following are the rules for the datathon and team forming:
1. Each team MUST have at least one clinical team leader. The clinical team leader will have to submit the problem statement (abstract) by 1 Nov 2021.
2. All the abstracts will be reviewed by our scientific mentors. Judging based on the novelty and impact of the proposed problem statement, the selected abstracts and teams will be informed by 15 Nov 2021.
3. NOTE: Teams should NOT reuse project problem statements that they have previously published or have been already working on for a long time. Teams are encouraged to propose new problem statements for the datathon. A declaration is needed during registration.
4. Each team will be at least 2 and at most 8 members. For an effective team, we recommend the team should contain a number of healthcare experts, data engineers familiar with SQL to extract data and data scientists that can build predictive or statistical models.
5. Clinical/data science team leaders can submit their abstract with their own team members (fully formed or partially form), or they are welcome to participate as an individual. For individual clinical team leaders, if their abstract is selected, we will match them with registered data scientists to form their team. Teams can no longer be changed after 26 Nov 2021.
6. Data scientists/machine learning experts can register now as well. We will match you to the selected teams that are still looking for members.
7. All team members need to apply and obtain access to the datasets that they intend to use before the start of the datathon. To be fair, teams are only allowed to use the public datasets that the event supports.
8. All teams will need to submit their pre-recorded presentation video (no more than 5 minutes) and upload it on Microsoft Team "Final Video Submission" channel by 7PM 5 Dec 2021 (Singapore time). No or late submission will be automatically disqualified!
