The boundaries of the topic choice were quite loosely defined and the organisers encouraged us to use artificial intelligence (AI). My eventual development can be found on <a href="https://devpost.com/software/traap" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DevPost</a>.</p> <h2 id="hackathon-process">Hackathon Process</h2> <p>My team consisted out of two other developers and me. All of us had never developed any AI technology before. After an intensive brainstorming, we decided on a use case of analysing travel data with some machine learning algorithms. After several setbacks, including a crashed operating system which took up a significant amount of the hackathon time to work around, I decided to tackle our use case from another perspective. I programmed the whole night and came up with <a href="https://devpost.com/software/traap" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Traap - the TRAvel mAP</a>.</p>
