Results released for IDSOL 2024 Finals

The International Data Science Olympiad ("IDSOL") was held at the InHolland University of Applied Science (Hogeschool InHolland) campus in Amsterdam at the Emerging Technologies Olympiad (ETO) on the 21st and 22nd of November 2024.

The Gold Medal (🥇) was awarded to BackTrack AI from Hong Kong SAR China, a fast and convenient screening method that can detect potential scoliosis from bare back images. A product prototype was built, utilizing K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) with 72% accuracy and a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with 77% accuracy. Lead by team captain Bryan Chiu, BackTrack AI also won 1st place in the ETO 2024 pitch stage.

The Silver Medal (🥈) was awarded to HealthNutz from Hong Kong SAR China, a device with computer vision capabilities that will intake a picture taken from the device and output traditional Chinese medical advice, focusing on how tongue diagnosis can be developed. Lead by team captain Dominic Tam, HealthNutz also won 5th place in the ETO 2024 pitch stage.

The Bronze Medal (🥉) was awarded to Potential+ from Hong Kong SAR China, an app that facilitates the collection and analysis of comprehensive student records, including academic, non-academic, quantitative, and qualitative data, along with personality identification and target studies/ careers

An Award of Merit (🎖️) was awarded to Study Gazette from Bangladesh, a combination of systems that streamline the process of learning content generation and distribution with the power of Large Language Models, proposing a breakthrough in adaptive learning through streamlining the process of creating Pedagogical Conversational Agents (PCA).
