Participation Policy
- Additional data from any other public or private dataset cannot be used in any way (including NO medical-relevant pre-trained models; Like Imagenet is acceptable), and any submission that violates this rule will be disqualified.
- Each participant/team can only use one account to participate in the competition, participants who use multiple accounts will be disqualified from the competition.
- The competition is divided into two phases, the first phase only requires the submission of predicted results, while the second phase requires the submission of an algorithm in docker format.
- The participants need to submit a short paper (6 pages in LNCS format) if they want to attend the final test phase. In the final phase, participants without submitting their short papers will not be eligible for awards and inclusion in the rankings. For the content of the short paper, original or non-original methods are fine, but they should describe their solution for the AMOS22 challenge in a factual way.
- The validation data ground truth will not be provided to the participants, but multiple submissions to the online evaluation platform will be allowed. For the testing phase, only the last run submitted docker container is officially counted to compute results.
Publication Policy
- The top submitting authors (up to three per team) will also be invited to co-author the challenge paper summarizing the results.
- To become co-author, participating teams will be required to submit a short paper (6 pages in LNCS format).
- The organizers reserve the right to decide/change the number of co-authors for each method. The number and ranking of authors will be determined by the challenge organizers.
- Conversely, the decision on the names of co-authors in the participant methods will be determined by the individual participating teams.
- Participating teams may publish their developed methods using the data provided in this challenge, provided they properly cite the challenge and dataset.
Winner Obligation
As a condition for being awarded a Prize, the final top 10 winners must fulfil the following obligations:
- deliver to the Competition Organizers the final model's source code as used to generate the winning submission and associated documentation. The delivered software code must be capable of generating the winning submission and contain a description of resources required to build and/or run the executable code successfully;
- sign and return all Prize acceptance documents as may be required by Competition Sponsor/Organizers.
