How to create an algorithm

You develop your algorithm and package it as a Docker Container for upload. You can find a template and more information in our TopAneu-26 Repository.

Common Pitfalls

  • Execution Time: Containers have a maximum execution time of 12 Minutes, if this time is exceeded your algorithm will be killed and considered failed.
  • Image Size: Your container image can at most be 10GB. To save on size you can upload your model weights seperately:
  • Ressources: Your container has limited resources available, you have to configure these ressources yourself (see below for a quick tutorial):
    • GPU: Nvidia T4, 16 GB VRAM
    • DRAM: Max 32 GB (1GB is reserved for GC operations, so 31 GB for your algorithm)

How to adjust algorithm settings

  1. Go to your algorithm page and click "Update Settings"

  2. On the settings page scroll down to "Job requires *"

  • To increase memory change the number in the "Job requires memory gb*" fields. You can request up to 32 GB of memory.

  • To select a GPU select one from the dropdown menu in the "Job requires gpu type" field.
