This competition has a total duration of 3 months, within which you will be able to make your submissions and obtain results automatically. Once the first part of the competition is over, you will have one week to choose your best model and submit it to be graded and considered for cash or points prizes.
This competition does not have a "Late Submission" option.

Description
This challenge was designed because flight delays not only irritate air passengers and disrupt their schedules, but also cause them:
- a decrease in efficiency
- an increase in capital costs, the reassignment of flight crews and aircraft
- an additional crew expense
Consequently, on balance, an airline's history of flight delays can have a negative effect on passenger demand.
This competition is intended to predict the estimated length of flight delays for each
This solution proposes to build a prediction model of flight delay using automatic learning techniques. The accurate prediction of flight delays will help all actors in the air travel ecosystem to establish effective action plans to reduce the impact of delays and avoid loss of time, capital and resources.
Evaluation
The metric used for this challenge is the Root Mean Squared Logarithmic Error (RMSLE).
Then the csv file to be sent should look like this:
Then the csv file to be sent should look like this:
id target test_id_0 2470 test_id_1 30
This means that the flight on the date (mapping to test_id_1) for the flight number (mapping to test_id_1) will be delayed by 30 minutes.
Rules
Competitors can register and submit solutions as individuals not as teams (at least for now).
Since this is a learning challenge (the competitor will earn points, not cash), other than the rules in the DataSource Terms of Use, no other particular rules apply.
Maximum 10 solutions submitted per day.
Please note that there is no public/private leaderboard split for this challenge.
Note: We reserve the right to modify these rules at any time as needed.
