Here is the latest on Hearst Challenge. We are up to 400+ participants. An interesting question is whether a team from industry will take the title, or will academia prevail?
In terms of participation the split approximately is 85% non academic and 15% academic. The academic number might be somewhat underestimated as those who have registered with their gmail/yahoo/hotmail type accounts have been tagged as non academic.
In an interesting development, NUIM is offering extra credit to its students for serious participation in the competition.
Who will win it all?
