You may choose to submit a paper to be eligible to win a Paper Award Prize.

To be eligible for a Paper Award, you must separately submit a paper (Kaggle Notebook, PDF, arXiv, txt, etc.) documenting and describing the conceptual approach of your eligible ARC Prize 2024 Kaggle submission. Paper submissions must be submitted within 48 hours of the competition ending.

Paper Awards are evaluated equally on the following six components, where a score of 0 (lowest) and 5 (highest) is given in each category.

| Category   | Description | 
|----------------|---------|
|**Accuracy** | How accurate is the submission based on its performance on the leaderboard? (Note: you will be asked to provide your submission ID to match your notebook to your submission)  | 
|**Universality** | How general and universal is the Submission approach beyond the competition? Does your submission translate to other similar problems? How well does your method generalize?|
|**Progress** | How much does the paper increase the overall chance of anyone achieving 85% on ARC Prize?|
|**Theory** | How well does the paper describe why the Submission works (as opposed to merely describing how it works)? |
|**Completeness** | How thoroughly and completely does the paper cover your submission to the leaderboard?|
|**Novelty** | How novel is the Submission relative to existing public research?|

The Paper Award will be awarded to the Submission with the most points and the Paper Award Runner Up will the second most points. Your Paper rubric evaluation will not be shared with you. In the event of a tie, the Paper that was entered first to the Competition will be the winner. In the event a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, the Paper that received the next highest score rank will be chosen as the potential winner.
