Multiple submissions

Question from Tal Einav during the 1st informational session:

Since participants are able to submit up to 5 times, will all 5 be evaluated and ranked? And can one participant submit two different approaches/entries?

These are great questions.

  1. The CMI-PB team will evaluate the most recent submission file you provided before the challenge’s due date. However, if a contestant exceeds the maximum submission limit of 5 and wishes to modify their submission, they can coordinate with the CMI-PB team to request a change in their submission.

  2. If contestants are employing multiple modeling approaches and wish to make distinct submissions for each one, we recommend creating separate CMI-PB accounts for managing these entries. For those utilizing more than three modeling strategies, which might complicate submission management, they can coordinate with the CMI-PB team to submit their entries offline.

If you encounter any difficulties managing your submissions, please reach out to us at cmi-pb-challenge@lji.org for assistance.
