WELCOME TO KDD-BR 2022

The 6th Brazilian Competition on Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD-BR 2022) is part of the joint activities of the 2022 editions of BRACIS and ENIAC. This year, the competition is related to the challenging problem of aerial navigation for unmanned aircraft in GNSS contested environments. The goal of this year’s challenge is to develop a method to predict changes in position of an UAV based on the sequences of images.

The top three teams will be invited to present their solutions at a competition award session at the BRACIS 2022 and will be awarded free registration at the event (conference dinner included). One of the teams will receive lodging support.
