Capstone Project Consulting and Analytics Club, IIT Guwahati

Rules and guidelines should be strictly followed for the Capstone Project. 

• This is a Capstone Project where every registered person participates individually, so no team of 2 and above formation is allowed.

• You'll be provided with Training as well as Testing Data Set. You must Train your model on the training data set and submit the predictions over the test data set on the hackathon's page.

• Use of external Data is not allowed.

• There will be 2 Leaderboards:

• Public Leaderboard: The Public leaderboard will be visible to everyone throughout the time

• Private Leaderboard: It will be visible once the hackathon ends. Public leaderboards judge your predictions on 60% of the test data set, and private leaderboard judges on the rest 40%.

• The reason behind the Private leaderboard is to discourage the practice of overfitting the model on the Public leaderboard.

• You are allowed to make only 5 submissions in a day for 3 days.

• You all are supposed to choose two submissions before the end of the competition.

• All competition participants will be asked to submit their notebooks, so keep them informative and clean. Your Notebook submissions will also be evaluated.

• This
  hackathon will be part of your grading,
  so you must rename your
  team name
  to
  the
  <first_name>_<registered_email_ID>
  format. Example: If your first name is
  abc
  and your email ID is
  xyz123@email.com
  ,
  then your team name would be
  abc_xyz123.

• You'll be allowed to make only 5 submissions on the website daily. So, it'd be good if you started earlier. The people who will start soon will be able to make more submissions.

• You're strictly advised not to publish your notebooks before the end of the Hackathon. If found, it'd lead to disqualification of your team.

• You're not allowed to discuss the approach among the participants in the "Discussion Channel" before the end of the Hackathon.

• Don't Use Multiple accounts for submissions

• Violating any rules stated will strictly lead to disqualification(without any warnings) from the Summer Analytics 2023 Course.

• Don't cheat!

• Apply yourself!

• Have fun!
