Submission file structure

[czopluoglu]

Hi,

Could you please clarify the submission file structure? Should we create a submission file for each specific item so there will be 10 CSV files in the required format, one for each item? That's what I understand from the 6th bullet item at this link, "Repeat for all items and save into a single folder/directory".

However, the recent email we received (from @jcwhitmer) says, "Please include your predictions in a single file in CSV or XLSX file format," and the whole test dataset is in one piece. Does that mean we should combine the predictions from all 10 items in one file (like the released test data) and then use it for submission?

It would be very helpful to clarify it. It would be even more helpful to provide a sample submission file for this competition (or for future competitions) to avoid any confusion.

Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you so much for your question.

We are modifying the directions slightly and asking that participants submit one csv that contains 4 columns for all scoring predictions they have chosen to submit:

accession, student_id, predicted_score, and participant

Please see a screen shot and file examples of a sample CSV below:

example_submission_format_2.csv

You only need to put the email address of the team lead once in the "participant" column.
