Hi @dongyang -

Our platform does additional validation to ensure that predicted spans have the correct format. One form of validation is that there should be no spans with less than 1 character in them (since predictions with the same start and end index are meaningless). You should be receiving an error message that says something like “Zero or negative spans prohibited: found 1 spans with length less than one”. You should look at your local submission csv to determine why your code is outputting a span that has no length.

Let me know if you continue to experience issues.

Hi Chrisk,

Thank you for the clarification on the additional validation. I’ve resolved the issue and successfully submitted.

Also, could I inquire about any plans to extend the deadline?

Thank you.

My kind regards,  
Dong
