Dear Zindians,

The ICLR challenges are computer vision challenges, therefore your models should not use any of the metadata provided.

All the best,

The Zindi team

hello, can you please clarify what you mean by metadata ? does it have to do with things like original image size, ... ?

@alka IMHO image size is also a metadata so it should not be used. It is basically a leak that can boost your score on the Leaderboard but brings no value outside of this dataset. I assume @zindi, CGIAR and ICLR would prefer something that generalizes well and therefore the use of image size should NOT be allowed here.

PS: zindi@zindi.africa is pinged now

Image size, aspect ratio, pixel count, etc are not allowed. CGIAR would like a solution that is generalizable.

Can we use apect ratio during resizing? eg turning a 800x400 image into 128x64 then padding to 128x128?
