New Kaggle competition: Human Protein Atlas Image Classification

Deep Learning
1

Hi all, there is a new kaggle competition out touching the core of my daily work: It is about building a multi-label classifier for 28 classes of confocal microscopic images. The images have been taken from the Human Protein Atlas created by Emma Lundberg et al.

Emma has got a paper out in Nature Biotechnology this August describing an ealier effort on classifying these images, in part with labels crowdsourced to players of the MMO game EVE Online. It is a pretty good read.

See the press release
on the paper by Stanford University

Make sure to check out the paper and the competition.

Disclosure: I am working for the main sponsor of this competition.

nice! Now to decide whether to attempt this or the restarted Airbus comp. Double kaggling isn’t for the faint of heart.

Someone interested to team up, I am using fastai V1.

I am.

I just started this and was trying to replicate Vitaly’s Pretrained InceptionResNetV2 base classifier . . .

I’m getting hung up on an error:

Has anyone come across this? Is it corrupt images, maybe?

Thanks in advance!
