  • Select a commit hash (default: latest)
  • Upload must include:
    • Trained model weights
    • Model code & inference script
    • Documentation

How to Prepare Your Submission

Follow these steps to ensure your model is ready:

  1. Download the baseline codebase
  2. Define model input/output
  3. Implement your inference logic
  4. Add your trained weights to the models directory
  5. Implement the predict submission function
