We also have an IEEE BDB Competition
The IEEE Brain Initiative has sponsored several challenges and competitions during 2017 to analyse a range of brain/neuro datasets. The first IEEE Brain Data Bank (BDB) Challenge was held in June at St. Petersburg, as part of the IEEE SPCN 2017 Symposium (https://spcn.co/). Other challenges were held in Glasgow, Scotland, October 31, 2017, during the IEEE SENSORS Conference (http://ieee-sensors2017.org/), followed by the IEEE BDB Competition in Boston, USA, December 9, 2017 (https://brain.ieee.org/news/call-participation-ieee-brain-data-bank-challenge-boston/).

Following the success of BDB Challenges in 2017, there are new activities planned in 2018. Apart from last year’s global events, the BDB will be held for the first time in China in July 2018, in conjunction with the 9th International Brain-Inspired Cognitive Systems (BICS) Conference. You are cordially invited to participate in the Xi’an competition, and to exercise your curiosity and creativity to make sense of your chosen datasets (see details on our website:http://bics2018.org/ieee-bdb-competition).

Judging
Entries will be judged in three categories:

Data analysis including well-justified, innovative, and rigorous methodologies
Data visualization including novel, highly informative, and aesthetically appealing visualization techniques
Presentation and interpretation of findings including clear, informative delivery and compelling investigation and interpretation

Awards
There will be 3 awards given:
1st place: $600-$1000.00
2nd place: $400-$500.00
3rd place: $200-$300.00
