First time doing a research code competition.
\nI know that there's preprocessing, training, and inference. But are all three of these included in the submission notebook or is it just an inference version that reads from test_soundscapes?

The notebook is not the submission, but a text file such as .csv. Usually the competition will say \"find y and submit in a .csv format that should be just one column with your predictions\", then in your notebook you need to have a code that downloads your predictions as a file in that format. Then you submit that file to the competition. I don't know about more complex competitions, but the begginer friendly ones always mention in their describtion the exact format the submission file should be.
\nThen with just one notebook you can tweak your model and generate many different preditions, then upload them as seperate submissions.

I'm guessing we output submission.csv to /kaggle/working/submission.csv.
