In addition top-notch research presentations on where the new frontiers of web technology, people looking for a phd, post-doc or an industrial position can take advantage of this presentation opportunity to have high-quality exposure and networking.</p>\n<p>The selection is based on data science merit - not only predictive accuracy, so even if you are not in the very top of the leaderboard, you are most welcome to submit and present your creative ideas. Obviously, we would love to meet the prize recipients in person and have a chat in Florence!</p>\n<p>A solution description should be 2-4 pages long, explaining the solution ideas, as well as the process that led to it (yes, it's perfectly fine to describe failing attempts for everybody to learn from). All the material is kept strictly confidential until the presentation, so no ideas will be passed to other contestants.</p>\n<p>Please submit to:</p>\n<p>malwarecompetition@outlook.com</p>",
