bengali.ai

bengali.ai is a community working to solve the absence of open-sourced datasets for bengali computer vision/natural language processing research. bengali.ai has launched a pilot competition through which we are also making our first dataset public, which has more than 85,000+ bengali handwritten digits. it’s a month-long online machine learning competition where the participants have to train their computer/model on our open-sourced database ‘numtadb’ to be able to detect handwritten bengali digits (০,১,২,৩,...) and test the performance on a hidden test set through kaggle’s online platform. it is the first of a series of competitions called “bengali.ai computer vision challenge” through which we wish to open-source more datasets in the future.
