SMC Data Challenge 2023 provides an opportunity to tackle scientific data challenges that come from eminent datasets related to Oak Ridge Laboratory (ORNL). These datasets come from scientific simulations and instruments in physical and chemical sciences, electron microscopy, bioinformatics, engineering, materials science, neutron sources, urban development, and other areas, and will have open research questions and tasks for participants to solve. These datasets will be used for the SMC Data Challenge (SMCDC2023) competition. Selected solutions to these challenges will be given a DOI (https://doi.ccs.ornl.gov/).
All participants must obtain an ORNL conference access approval to participate in the poster sessions and webinars for this competition. Respond promptly to all ORNL access invitations and emails from the organizers to avoid potential delays.
