What is the training runtime?

Since the winners solutions will be trained again, I want to know, is the training runtime the same as the test runtime?

There is not a specified training runtime. Prize finalists will be given more detail on packaging up their code at the end of the competition. For now, the biggest thing to pay attention to is keeping training code reproducible (this includes tracking any additional package dependencies as well).

So this means there is no limit on the (re-)training runtime of the final model? Is there any possibility that this will be changed later on, considering this would have a major impact on code reproducibility?

@Kennykenster can you share more specifically what your concern is? For example, are you worried about time limits or specific compute constraints?

Yes, are any specific details on training-time limits and are there further hardware specifications?
