Will your algorithm be the best for this new image data challenge?

Posted by , on 26 February 2024

In order to answer image data analysis demands, France-BioImaging is launching its first data machine learning competition: welcome to the Light My Cells challenge!

The Light My Cells challenge aims at contributing to the development of new image-to-image ‘deep-label’ methods in the fields of biology and microscopy. Basically, the goal is to predict the best-focused output-images of several organelles labelled with fluorescence from label-free transmitted light input-images. And we need you for that!

This challenge is hinged on a double contribution: from core facilities engineers and from data scientists. The first group acquired a large number of images to build a dataset, that will later be used by the algorithms. These images were produced by microscopy engineers & technicians from FBI’s platforms.

As for the second contribution, this is where the challenge starts! The challenge has been published online to have a maximum of data scientists to work on the algorithms that best fulfill the analysis task.

You can apply and test your algorithm right now as the training database is already available! To learn more about the challenge and submit your application, please visit the Light My Cells page on Grand Challenge website at https://lightmycells.grand-challenge.org/. You have until the end of the first phase, on March 30, 2024, to register and participate. 

Please feel free to share this challenge with your colleagues who might be interested in this great opportunity to showcase their coding skills (and try to win prizes!)
