Mission:

Machine Learning is the science of building hardware or software that can achieve tasks by learning from examples. The examples often come as {input, output} pairs. Given new inputs a trained machine can make predictions of the unknown output.

Examples of machine learning tasks include:

• automatic reading of handwriting
  
• assisted medical diagnosis
  
• automatic text classification (classification of web pages; spam filtering)
  
• financial predictions

We organize challenges to stimulate research in this field. The web sites of past challenges remain open for post-challenge submission as ever-going benchmarks.
