Kagglethon 3 - Sound recognition

16-May 2019 - 17:30

This our 3rd gathering, out of 4 planned, in this Barrel.ai Kagglethon (earlier description below) before the final model submission and winner announcement on 19th of June. This is also the opportunity for new participants/teams to join the competition. We do expect that you have at least some ML modeling experience if you are to join the competition.

At this gathering, we meet to co-work on our kernel submissions and demo our kernels, for those who want.

Can you tell the difference between a baby's laugh and the sound of a chainsaw? Do you think you can teach a computer to do the same?
