Want more? Join us for Phase Two with the NIST Differential Privacy Synthetic Data Challenge hosted on TopCoder!
The second phase of this contest will move from ideas to implementation, focusing on empirical evaluation of differentially private synthetic data generation tools. In this head-to-head Topcoder Marathon Match, teams will implement their solution and be benchmarked against each other on clustering, classification and regression tasks. You are eligible to participate in Phase 2 whether or not you participated in Phase 1.
Be on the lookout for more details when the challenge launches this fall!
