🌾3LC Cotton Weed Detection Challenge 🌾
We’re excited to announce the launch of the 3LC Cotton Weed Detection Challenge—now live on Kaggle!
Build a production-ready weed detector under real-world constraints: small models & imperfect labels—the conditions production AI teams face every day.
Your mission
• Detect & classify 3 weed species in cotton fields: Carpetweed, Morning Glory, Palmer Amaranth
• Train with YOLOv8n @ 640 (fixed model size). Tune augmentation & hyperparameters, but no larger models, ensembles, or stacking allowed
• Confront imperfect labels (missed weeds, class confusion, uneven boxes)—exactly what real teams face
Prizes (USD $2,000 total)
🥇$1,000 • 🥈 $500• 🥉 $250 • 🎨 $250 Most Creative Solution (shareable across up to 5 teams)
Plus: winner & participation certificates, LinkedIn shoutouts, and community recognition.
What you’ll learn
• Developing AI under strict resource constraints
• Data-centric techniques to detect & correct label issues
• Designing an iterative train–fix–retrain workflow guided by model feedback
• Designing pipelines that scale from experimentation to production

🚀 Announcing the Synthetic-to-Real Multi-Class Object Detection Challenge!
We’re excited to announce the launch of the Synthetic-to-Real Multi-Class Object Detection Challenge—now live on Kaggle!
This exciting competition is brought to you by 3LC in partnership with Duality AI, creators of the powerful FalconCloud tool for generating targeted synthetic data. Together, we're offering a unique opportunity to push the boundaries of object detection through high-fidelity, simulation-to-real workflows.
🧪 What Makes This Challenge Special?
💻 Create customized training data with Duality’s cloud-based scenario
🧠 Analyze data weaknesses and take precise, data-driven actions using 3LC's robust tooling
⚙️ Optimize data for peak model training
🏆 Why Join?
• Win cash prizes, certificates, and global recognition
• Gain exposure to real-world simulation workflows used in top AI companies
• Collaborate and compete with leading minds in computer vision, ML, and AI
Whether you're a student, researcher, or industry pro, this challenge is your chance to bridge the Sim2Real gap and showcase your skills in building high-performance object detection models.
