Team from Dortmund takes second place at first AKPIK Datathon

As part of the DPG Spring Meeting "SMuK" 2023, the DPG Working Group "Physics, Modern Information Technology and Artificial Intelligence" (AKPIK) organized the first AKPIK Datathon. We are happy to announce that the team "Low Hanging Fruits", consisting of Pascal Gutjahr, Mirco Hünnefeld, Ludwig Neste and Lukas Beiske from the Chair of Astroparticle Physics at TU Dortmund University, could achieve an excellent second place!

ChatGPT, by the way, would write this post like this:

"The team "Low Hanging Fruits" from the astroparticle physics group at TU Dortmund University participated in the datathon of the working group "Physics, Modern Information Technology and Artificial Intelligence" (AKPIK) of the German Physical Society (DPG) at the spring conference "SMuK" 2023. Within only 4 hours, the participants had to accomplish the challenging task of selecting the 10,000 best ones from a training dataset of about 43,000 images of clothing items that best train a given neural network on a test dataset that was also given.

The team "Low Hanging Fruits" was able to perform well in this datathon, placing second. Despite the tight time frame and challenges of the competition, the team demonstrated their technical expertise and innovative approach.

We would like to thank team "Low Hanging Fruits" for their hard work and dedication in this Datathon. We are proud of their achievement and happy that they represented our research group and TU Dortmund University in this competition. We would also like to thank the German Physical Society for organizing this Datathon and promoting Artificial Intelligence in Physics.

We are confident that our research in the field of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science will continue to find innovative solutions to the challenges of the modern world."
