Hi, I wanted to know if there’s going to be a baseline notebook to be able to make a successful submission?  
if not, could this be made available ?

Hi @ZzyZx,

As part of the launch of the Evaluation Stage, we will have an example code submission that successfully performs inference and generates a valid prediction. However, this will be a fairly simplistic submission that is not a very useful model.

There are not currently any plans to publish example code for a more realistic baseline model.
