Hello,
I would to clarify whether is it allowed to discuss used approaches and make a publication of our approaches in scientific articles before announcing the final results.
Hi @RomanChernenko,
Please see this section of the challenge rules:
CODE SHARING. Participants are prohibited from privately sharing source or executable code developed in connection with or based upon the Data, and any such sharing is a breach of these Competition Rules and may result in disqualification. Participants are permitted to publicly share source or executable code developed in connection with or based upon the Data, or otherwise relevant to the Competition, provided that such sharing does not violate the intellectual property rights of any third party. By so sharing, the sharing Participant is thereby deemed to have licensed the shared code under the MIT License (an open source software license commonly described at http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT).
You are not allowed to privately share your work outside of your team in the challenge while it is ongoing, but you are permitted to publicly share it.
Please note also that there is still the upcoming Final Prize Stage where participants can update their models, and there will be another final model report submission.
