Zalo AI Challenge 2021 returning with 3 interesting and highly practical challenges

After 2 months of preparation, this year competition is announced with three challenges corresponding to three different fields of AI and are suitable for the current social context.

“5K Compliance” – This challenge aims to determine whether a group of people in an image are compliant with the 5K rules . It is one of the most appreciated topics this year due to its practicality. During the COVID-19 outbreak, the Vietnamese government promotes the “5K” message which emphasizes masks and distance as two factors contributing to preventing the spread of the disease. The topic requires each team to build an algorithm detecting whether a person or a group in a photo are following the “mask” and “distance” criteria.

“Hum to song” – this challenge requires identification of a song title upon listening to humming or whistling melody. The topic focuses on solving the problem when the audience cannot remember the exact lyrics. Each team is required to build an AI model to identify songs based on a humming sample.

The third challenge involves making references of the legal terms and law provisions solve different problems in life. It is often confusing for the public to find proper directions regarding the particular legal matter due to the abundance of law provisions. Each provisions include many legal terms which are also referenced in other provisions. Sifting through the content of a huge database is usually too complicated for the public. Thus this year “Legal Text Retrieval” challenge is introduced. Each team is required to create a search model for law provisions.

Mr. Chuong Nguyen – representative of the Zalo AI Challenge 2021 – said: “We always try to give the teams challenges that are highly practical and closely linked to social concerns. All three topics allow teams to come up with new approaches to problem solving.We expect this year’s competition to attract even more teams, both students and working professionals”.
