Two are the available tracks (the first mandatory, the second optional). For both tracks the participants are asked to submit a Unix executable (or python code, as preferred). This will be used to reproduce the obtained results (both tracks) and to measure inference speed under the same workload conditions (Track 2). Teams interested in taking part in Track 2 have to write their will on a topic on the discussion board. 

### Track 1

Detection of parasites’ eggs. The F1 Score at different intersection over union (IoU) thresholds will be used as performance metric (see the Evaluation page). In case of a draw, the team with the lowest number of submissions made will be declared the winner.

### Track 2

Also the inference time (on the test set, run on a HPC unix machine equipped with GPU acceleration) will be considered to declare the winner, according to the following formula:
\[score = 2 * \frac{F_1 * T_n}{F_1 + T_n}\]
where *Tn* is the min-max normalized execution time (median value over 10 repetitions) between all the participants.
