Contest registration

The entries must focus on the core technology of artificial intelligence and explore the creative scheme of technology application with specific landing scenarios, such as the application and exploration of artificial intelligence technology in aerospace, industry, agriculture, medical care, culture, education, finance, transportation, public safety, daily life, public welfare and other industries.

The competition adopts an open proposition, and the entries must use Baidu AI open platform related technologies and follow the relevant design, development guidelines and specifications. Participants should give full play to their innovative ability, explore application scenarios freely and obtain relevant data by themselves, and finally submit original entries that can be displayed in visual applications.

The competition is divided into three groups: the enabling group (EasyDL/BML/AI Studio), the innovation group (flying oars) and the aerospace group (flying oars). Each team can choose any group according to its own interests and technical ability. The same team member (team) is allowed to enter only one group.
