AI Driving Olympics at NIPS 2018: Compete with the machine learning pros

10 points by AndreaCensi ↗ HN
I am one of the organizers of the AI Driving Olympics at NIPS 2018, in which 6 universities are involved (ETH Zürich, U. Montréal / MILA, Georgia Tech, Tsinghua, NCTU, TTIC), plus 2 industry partners (self-driving car company nuTonomy and Amazon Web Services).

We are excited because this is going to be the first robotic competition at a machine learning conference: you send your code - we run it on our robots.

Or, you can get a robot yourself through the Kickstarter run by our non-profit foundation:

I’ve been a student of the course and part of the project for the last year. Brilliant idea, great people, perfect execution. If you have questions don’t hesitate asking:)
I have been involved in the development of this platform since the early days. I'll be happy to answer any question related to it!
