Welcome to the OpenFOAM machine learning hackathon repository! The hackathon is a community event organized by the data-driven modeling special interest group. If you are an OpenFOAM user excited about combining OpenFOAM and machine learning, this event is for you!
A hackathon is an intensive get-together for creative problem solving in groups. The corner stones of the OpenFOAM-ML hackathon are as follows:
- objective: we prepare 2-3 exciting projects combining recent ML techniques and OpenFOAM; the projects are diverse; for each project, a fully-functioning starter code is provided; your task is to advance the starter code in a self-chosen direction; we provide you with a couple of potential ideas
- time limit: the hackathon consists of three full days of intense hacking
- team work: each participant chooses the preferred project/starter code; within each project, the participants are split up into groups of 2-5 people
- workshops: for each project, a workshop introduces the starter code and a necessary minimum of theory
- hacking sessions: the groups advance their projects; we aim to provide close mentor support for all groups via gather.town and slack
- final presentation: each team presents their final results to a jury of renowned OpenFOAM community members
- evaluation: the jury evaluates all projects according to the evaluation criteria listed below; prices provided by our sponsors will be distributed among the participants
The workshop is fully virtual. There is no geographical restriction for participants, but keep in mind that we cannot accommodate all time zones. The organizers' time zone is CET.
May 15, 2022: start of the application processJune 15, 2022: end of the application processJune 22, 2022: end of the application process- July 1, 2022: feedback on the applications
- July 25-27, 2022: hackathon
A detailed schedule for the hackathon will be provided two weeks prior to the event. Note that you should reserve three full days for the hackathon.
Since we aim to provide all participants with close support during the hackathon, the number of participants is limited to 20. Applications are accepted until June 15, 2022 June 22, 2022. There are no registration fees or other costs, but admission is not guaranteed. Based on all applications, we will select the most suitable candidates.
New applications are no longer accepted.
All submitted projects are evaluated by a jury of renowned OpenFOAM community members. The following criteria are considered:
- originality of the idea
- code quality
- code documentation
- instructions for compiling/running the code
- reproducibility of results
- final performance of the algorithm
- final presentation
