After the great success of the first challenge the DDMoRe community group
organized ( https://www.ddmore.foundation/repository-challenge-2017/ ), the
volunteers wish to launch its second challenge:
“Win a cash
prize by publishing models in the DDMoRe Model Repository”
*How does it work?* (details at
https://www.ddmore.foundation/repository-challenge/ )
To be eligible for the prize, submission of the models to the DDMoRe model
repository should be performed by the applicant himself/herself (not on
behalf).
Models to be uploaded by the applicant can be of any kind with preference
for models applied to real data. The models should be proposed in advance
to the model repository community group (info_at_ddmore.foundation just to
avoid duplication), with one exception: models presented for the first
time at ACoP 2018 and applied to real data, will be directly eligible for
the prize when uploaded.
To be considered eligible, the model should be published in agreement with
the submission guidelines of the DDMoRe model repository.
• A model uploaded in MDL/PharmML receives 3 credits.
• A model uploaded in original code receives 1 credit.
• A model not currently available online (i.e. not published in
a scientific paper) receives 1 additional credit.
• A model based on an accepted abstract of ACoP 2018 and
applied on real data receives 1 additional credit.
*Who will win?*
A panel committee will review the applications that satisfy the eligibility
criteria.
The 8 applicants with the highest credit will receive a prize.
*What to win?*
Prizes will be divided among the 8 applicants (100 euros each minus
transfer fees) and distributed in Feb 2019.
Winners will be advertised among the community distributions lists.
Model submission deadline: 31st December 2018
*Who are the current sponsors? *BAST, Pharmetheus, SGS exprimo, OCCAMS,
Calvagone, and Merck.
