Challenge yourself and improve your skills on data science
Our active Data Challenges related with Autism
Speech 2 pictogram
Recognize the voice, transform to text and finally to pictograms. Help autistic people to understand better what you say
interventions tracking
Design a developmental interventions tracking system. Help parents, teachers and therapist to be aligned and data-driven for the well-being of the child.
music composition
Help parents to compose music to promote verbality in their limited verbal autistic child
learning emotions
Create an app to learns emotions gradually using pictures and gamification concepts.
Speech 2 Pictogram
Transform voice to text and then to pictograms.
Autistic people are visual learners they get a lot more from image than voice.
Some autistic people, specially small children are non-verbal yet, they can improve their understanding with this solution
All the elements are there but no body has integrated them so far. Would you be the first?
Developmental Interventions Tracking
Autism is a huge spectrum and the needs of every child are really different. This challenge consist on implementing a tracking system for measuring the developmental interventions.
It keeps parents, teachers and therapists aligned
It focus the effort on the developmental milestones for the child. Making it 100% personalized.
Automated Music Composition
Autistic people tend to love pattern and music is a pattern. That is why it has been use to promote verbality in autistic children. Automate the music composition to help children and parents to become verbal.
Music is an excellent way to communicate with pre-verbal autistic children
Certain patterns on the music promote better the verbality
Automatic composition of music could be achieved using Data Science.
Learning emotions though Games
Understanding their emotions and others emotions is an important area under the Autism Spectrum. With face recognition and using images, autistic people could learn about emotions step by step using a game similar to Duolingo that focus in teaching progressively about emotions.
Cover a big spectrum of emotions
Discover subtle changes in the faces to recognize other people emotion
Participate, code, learn and create an impact
Why you should participate?
Gaining experience developing a data product from the idea to the implementation would bring a lot of benefits for your career. If in top of that you are helping a community that normally doesn’t get so much attention then you earn double!
You could show your implementation as part of your Data Science Portfolio
You could talk in interviews about the whole process of creating a data product from the idea to a prototype or even a solution ready to market.
You might end with a solution that you could use to start your own start-up.
You would have the chance to have interesting discussion with people that works in Data Science like you.
