The Go Data Science - Hackathon (Gods 4.0) is a hybrid event organized by the CIS Chapter in collaboration with the IEEE ENSI Student Branch. This exciting event provided both online and in-person experiences, aiming to foster knowledge sharing and skill enhancement in the field of data science.The fourth edition of this event featured a series of workshops led by renowned experts, followed by a 12-hour hackathon, where participants engaged in solving real-world challenges in healthcare. The workshops were conducted online via Microsoft Teams, while the competition took place on the Zindi platform and in-person at UIK: Université Ibn Khaldoun

Pre-Hackathon Bootcamp

To prepare participants for the hackathon, a Bootcamp was organized prior to the competition. It included three workshops designed for beginners to help them develop foundational skills in data science:

  1. Introduction to Computer Vision

  2. Introduction to Deep Learning with PyTorch

  3. Introduction to Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Workshops on Hackathon Day

On the day of the hackathon, participants had the opportunity to attend four technical workshops, delivered both online and in-person:

Online Workshops:

  1. Leveraging Computer Vision: Exploring Classification, Detection, and Segmentation Tasks
