After I decided to pursue a Data Science major, I realized the importance of gaining competition experience. Therefore, I took on the role of team leader and participated in the AI-based Medical Data Analysis Competition.
데이터 사이언스 학부로의 전과를 결심한 이후, 경진대회의 필요성을 느껴서 처음으로 경진대회에 참여하였다. 팀 리딩을 해보는 경험 또한 쌓고 싶어서 팀장/팀대표로 참여하였다.
Competition Themes
1. MRI Diffusion Image Model Generation and Accuracy Improvement
2. Power BI Analysis of Health screening Data
3. Image Generation using Stable Diffusion
대회주제
- MRI Diffusion 이미지 모델 생성과 정확도 개선
- 건강검진 데이터 Power BI 분석
- Stable Diffusion을 이용한 이미지 생성
Key takeaways from the competition:
- Enhanced understanding of AI applications in medical imaging: Gained insights into various techniques for image analysis, classification, and segmentation.
- Data visualization and preprocessing expertise: Power BI served as a valuable tool for data visualization and exploration. I gained a deeper understanding of the importance of data preprocessing techniques in preparing data for the visualizations, and recognized the need for SQL proficiency in managing and analyzing large datasets. Inspired by this realization, I have set a goal to obtain the SQLD certification in May 2024.
- Stable Diffusion utilization and individual 3rd place achievement: Effectively utilized Stable Diffusion, an image generation model, for medical image synthesis. This culminated in my impressive individual 3rd place finish in the competition, which served as a great source of encouragement for my continued learning and development in the field.
- Leadership skills honed through team management: As team leader, I learned the importance of clear goal setting, effective communication, and timely decision-making. Despite initial challenges, I demonstrated my leadership by adapting to changing circumstances, making quick decisions, and realigning team goals, ultimately leading our team to success.
Earning a spot in this competitive competition, with its daunting 2:1 acceptance rate, was a rewarding achievement that reflects my dedication to crafting a strong application. The positive outcome of my participation has fueled my motivation to pursue even greater opportunities in the future.
2:1의 경쟁률을 뚫고 참가한 경진대회라 지원서 작성부터 신경을 많이 썼는데, 좋은 결과로 돌아와서 뿌듯하다! 굉장한 동기부여가 됐던 참가 경험이었고, 앞으로 더욱 노력해서 더 좋은 기회들을 많이 경험하고 싶다.
