The "Kaggle Challenge" was successfully conducted as the semi final round of selecting the teams for the final presentation round, after three knowledge sessions. The round aimed at showcasing participants’ skills in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning through coding. Participants worked on real-world datasets using Kaggle as the primary platform to build, train, and evaluate machine learning models. The round emphasized practical implementation, data analysis, and model optimization. Participants demonstrated strong problem-solving abilities by applying appropriate algorithms and improving model performance based on evaluation metrics. The Kaggle Challenge provided an engaging platform for participants to exhibit technical proficiency, analytical thinking, and hands-on experience in AI and ML. This round started on 4th of October (beginning of the day) and the participants were given time to code and work on their AI/ML project till 6th of October end of the day. After the conclusion of this round, an esteemed panel of judges selected 8 teams as the finalists who'll be facing the presentation round.
