> CSV format for submission

As you know there are multiple CSV format - my solutions do not get to be evaluated. could you specify more clearly the type of CSV needed by your python script for score evaluation?

Hi,

The results need to be in a comma separated text file. You can use the files in the sample submission bundle as an example. The standard csv files written by the python csv library and R write.csv, work well with the evaluation code. Please let us know if you still face any further problems.

Based on your submissions so far, it seems that you are only providing predictions for the varieties tested in stage III. Instead you should return values for all varieties tested in all the 3 stages. There is a possibility of some varieties skipping stages. Additionally, your inference of which varieties made it to the next stage may not agree with the actual values, and therefore you could use those results to justify a better selection method.
