A team led by Dr Jonathan Dan of the EPFL Embedded Systems Lab won the prize for Best Research Data Infrastructure at the Open Research Data for the Sciences hackathon, organised by the Swiss Data Science Center.
The team developed a research data infrastructure to benchmark epileptic seizure detection algorithms on private datasets. The platform evaluates algorithms on a secure infrastructure without sharing sensitive medical data with algorithm developers. The platform’s development is open-source, thus allowing the science community to compare their algorithms on the cloud in a fair and unbiased way in a fully automated and transparent setting.
The SDSC awarded the Best of Research Data Infrastructure prize to the following four scientists:
Jonathan DanCyril Matthey-Doret, EPFL
Esther Su Tan, University of Bern
Eisha Raazia, University of Geneva
