On 10th January 2025, the Harmony Question Matching Challenge ended, and after having evaluated 276 submissions from 26 participants, the results are now in. 🥳
Congratulations to the competition's winners:
- First place: José Inés Martínez Berard (@oreug) with
MAE=20.348, who won a £500 Amazon voucher 🏅 - Second place: Rafi Ahmed Riyaz Ahmed Patel (@rafa) with
MAE=20.544, who won a £250 Amazon voucher 🥈
The Harmony team will now work with the winners to explore the integration of their solutions into the Harmony tool, which aims to help researchers make better use of existing data by harmonising questionnaire items and measures across different studies using natural language processing.
Harmony is a collaboration between researchers at Ulster University, University College London, the Universidade Federal de Santa Maria and Fast Data Science. The Harmony project has been funded by Wellcome as part of the Wellcome Data Prize in Mental Health and by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC).
