IEEE BigData 2023 Cup: Object Recognition with Muon Tomography using Cosmic Rays

IEEE BigData 2023 Cup: Object Recognition with Muon Tomography using Cosmic Rays is the fifth data science competition organized in association with the IEEE International Conference on Big Data series (IEEE BigData 2023, https://bigdataieee.org/BigData2023/index.html). The challenge is related to the general idea of recognizing objects based on spatial data. As one of the approaches derived directly from known tomography methods, the competition task focuses on the non-invasive examination of the structure of x-rayed objects. The challenge is sponsored by QED Software (https://qed.pl/).

Overview

More details regarding the task and the description of the challenge datasets will be available in the Task description section below. The competition starts on June 12 and will end on September 30.

Special session at IEEE Big Data 2023: As in previous years, a special session devoted to the competition will be held at the conference. We will invite authors of selected challenge reports to extend them for publication in the conference proceedings (after reviews by Organizing Committee members) and presentation at the conference. The papers will be indexed in the same way as regular conference papers. The invited teams will be chosen based on their final rank, the innovativeness of their approach, and the quality of the submitted report.
