Participation Rules for Regular Challenge

ENTRY INTO THIS CHALLENGE CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE OFFICIAL RULES.


1 Registration

All teams should click the Join button to participate in the KiPA22 Regular Challenge. This is an automatic process, and only verified users can be accepted automatically.

All successfully registered participants will have 5 opportunities per week to submit the opening test. And they also have the right to download the training set and the open test set (after filling out the form and signing their real names).

* It's an open challenge platform based on trust, and any deception is not allowed! We will regularly check and maintain the competition. Any user who violates the regulations will be disqualified, and his institution will be added to our blacklist and made public.

2 Data Limits

Redistribution or transfer of data or data links is not allowed. Participants should use the data only by themselves. 

The images in the open test set are only used to test the trained model, so the participants are not allowed to use these images in the training process.

All participants should agree with the CC BY NC ND.

All participants should truly fill in the data form on the dataset page, and then they will be qualified to download the data.

For all papers using the KiPA22 dataset, please cite our related research papers on our homepage.

3 Pre-Trained Models and Additional Data

For a fair comparison, participants are NOT allowed to use any additional data and pre-trained models. 

Models entering the KiPA22 challenge should be solely trained using the official KiPA22 training dataset. The use of additional data from either public or private datasets is NOT allowed.  

4 Submission Rules

All participants have 5 opportunities/week to submit the open test evaluation.

All tests are automated processes based on trust. But please note that we will check them regularly. Once dishonest people appear, we will cancel their scores and blacklist them.

* If participants want to get a closed test opportunity, please prepare your technical papers (opened at ARXIV or other open platforms, and have the right citation) and Docker hub link following our closed test rule in the MICCAI-KiPA22 challenge, and then contact us by email
