AI contests

Автор Wild_Hamster, история, 7 лет назад, По-английски

Hello everybody. I am pretty interested in AI programming and I am wondering where I can get any information about possible current or upcoming AI contests/events. Are there any resources connected to it? Thank you in advance.

ai, help

You mean AI like Game AI, or like Machine Learning?

Not only like game AI. For example, HFT battle was hold 2 months ago and I wouldn't call it game AI or ML.

You have Quantiopian which should be similar.

Is this really a contest though? Because there are only 2 options:

Everything you do that beats the market is just overfitting of some kind.
You really are capable of beating the market, you should rapidly become billionaire then.

Not denying that it is fun to play with certainly, just not sure I would call it a competition of any kind.

That's not true. You could have a strategy which beats SPY benchmark but that strategy could have small capacity (in other words, for example, it may work only for order amounts less than 20k USD).

Having a strategy which beats the market on institutional size of money is completely different story and is magnitude harder to develop.

This is true however can you imagine a strategy with low capacity that runs on the data Quantopian has?

Usually it seems to me such strategies involve either stocks with very low market caps, or financial instruments other than straight equity (which as far as I know is the only thing Quantopian supports).

Hi,

Russian AI Cup -- cool AI programming contest, held every year in autumn for several weeks. Since last year they allowed to participate for non-russian guys. Usually there are about 350 t-shirts and 50 hoodies that can be won as well. Anyway, this is really cool competition, I participate there every year (from 2012!). Downside -- for the last few years games were heavily-concentrated on micro-control rather than macro-control. For some people it is a sad moment (it's much more interesting to write macro-part rather than "how to dodge a bullet"). But, this site has the most advanced technologies and animations to test your strategy, watch-in-web how it competes against other strategies and so on. It's top 1 game AI competition right now, I heavily recommend it.

codingame -- Site with several AI games and really nice animations + sometimes they have 1-2-weeks-long-contests. Plus, they support 20+ programming languages.

BattleCode -- It's an open AI competition from MIT, held in January every year. Usually there are strategy games, concentrated on macro-control. Games are interesting (sometimes they are like turn-based-starcraft) with high entry level (you can't just write reasonable "hello world" strategy in 5-10 lines). Also, site-functionality is very weak (in comparison to russian-ai-cup and codingame) and they only allow to code in Java.
