We are happy to announce the 3rd instalment of the ESA-Ariel ML Data Challenge. This year we are delighted to be hosting our competition alongside with NeurIPS 2022, one of the most prestigious Machine Learning conferences in the world.
The Ariel Space mission is a European Space Agency mission to be launched in 2029. Ariel will observe the atmospheres of 1000 extrasolar planets - planets around other stars - to determine how they are made, how they evolve and how to put our own Solar System in the galactic context.
Today we know of roughly 5000 exoplanets in our Milky Way galaxy. Yet, simple number counting does not tell us much about the nature of these worlds. This year we would like to invite YOU, our fellow challenger(s), to help us unveil the nature of these worlds. In particular, we would like you to infer six key physical characteristics of their atmosphere given a simulated observation from Ariel.
Interested? Please join the competition here: https://www.ariel-datachallenge.space/
The competition will run from 30th June to early October. There will be two tracks available, light and regular track. The first prizes for light and regular tracks are $1000 and $2000 respectively. The second prizes are $500 each.
The first prize winners will also be invited to attend our NeurIPS workshop.
