# 82nd place solution summary :)

This was our very first project in computer vision and in machine learning in general. We didn't manage to reach the top 10% (as we hoped), but we learned a lot from this contest. Now we would like to share our experience with everyone. Hopefully this will be helpful for the beginners.
Also we would be very grateful if you point out more mistakes we have made :)

Thank you all for the great contest.
