DeepRacer Women’s League to help women develop machine learning skills. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has launched the AWS DeepRacer Women’s League in Southeast Asia, an autonomous miniature car competition with reinforcement learning (RL) technology.
The first edition of AWS DeepRacer League was held in 2018, open to people of all backgrounds.
The league aims to give women more opportunities to develop or fine-tune their machine learning skills. It is open to women participants who are at least 17 years of age and currently enrolled in a diploma or degree program at a polytechnic or university in the ASEAN region.
“This initiative is expected to push the economy in Southeast Asia through the birth of strong women with skills and expertise in science,” Tan Lee Chew, ASEAN managing director of the Worldwide Public Sector of Amazon Web Services, said during a virtual press conference on Tuesday.
The race will be held with the AWS DeepRacer Vehicle, an autonomous 1/18th scale race car designed to test RL models by racing on a physical track with mounted cameras to help participants view the track.
The AWS DeepRacer Women’s League virtual race started on Aug. 1 in Thailand, then continued to Malaysia on Aug. 8. It made its way to Indonesia on Aug. 15, and will head to the Philippines on Aug. 22 and Singapore on Aug. 29.The top five participants will get promotional credits valued at US$300 each. The top three will compete in the grand finale in September, with a chance to win more credits, high-quality monitors and trophies.
