ZEISS Image Processing Coding Contest

ZEISS is calling all microscopists, coding enthusiasts, machine learning and software engineers for the best coding project in image processing.
Develop an innovative or challenging workflow solution and win 1 lakh rupees. The solution should address challenges faced by today’s microscopicsts who spend significant time on image processing tasks such as object detection and image segmentation.

Who can participate?

  • Any student, doctoral, post-doctoral or a researcher from any university or research institution in India.
  • Participants with skills in Python, especially in Scikit-image, OpenCV, and Tensorflow will benefit from their added image processing skills.
  • A good understanding of real life research problems involving microscopy also helps.
  • ZEISS encourage collaboration where an algorithm specialist pairs up with a researcher to solve a real world microscopy challenge.

How can you participate?
Fill the contest registration form below.
Register for free on www.apeer.com and explore existing modules and workflows.
Watch the videos below about module creation.
Build your module and execute it as a workflow on APEER.
If you do not have any challenges or data then please pick from one of the challenges mentioned in the below section.

How is the winner picked?
A panel of judges will pick the winner based on the following criteria:

  • Workflow should be executable on www.apeer.com
  • Relevance of the workflow to microscopy
  • Usability of the workflow for multiple use cases
  • Difficulty & usefulness
