<p>We’re excited to announce that the unlearning challenge is <a href="https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/neurips-2023-machine-unlearning/">now open for submissions on Kaggle</a>! We will accept submissions until November 27, 2023.</p>

<p>We recommend using <a href="https://www.kaggle.com/code/eleni30fillou/run-unlearn-finetune">this starting notebook</a> for making a submission, and simply replacing the contents of the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">unlearning</code> function. Please see the Kaggle page for more information on how to make a submission.</p>

<p>We are also excited to release our <a href="https://unlearning-challenge.github.io/assets/data/Machine_Unlearning_Metric.pdf">write-up with a formal definition of unlearning</a>, linking it to Differential Privacy, and a description of the metric and evaluation protocol that we use in the challenge.</p>

<p>We look forward to receiving your submissions!</p>

This starting kit provides a foundation for participants to build their unlearning models on the CIFAR-10 dataset.</p>

<p>The starting kit includes: a Jupyter notebook with code to:</p>

<ul>
  <li>load the CIFAR-10 dataset;</li>
  <li>train a baseline unlearning model; and</li>
  <li>score it using a membership inference attack.</li>
</ul>

<p>The API used in this baseline unlearning method will be the same one that participants will submit once the competition opens. Hence, we hope that this starting kit will help participants get started in developing and trying out their unlearning methods.</p>

<p>The starting kit can be accessed at <a href="https://github.com/unlearning-challenge/starting-kit">https://github.com/unlearning-challenge/starting-kit</a>.</p>

<p>We hope this starter kit will be helpful to participants as they prepare for the challenge. Please let us know if you have questions through the group <a href="https://groups.google.com/g/unlearning-challenge">unlearning-challenge</a> or our email <a href="mailto:unlearning@chalearn.org">unlearning@chalearn.org</a>.</p>

<p>Thank you for your interest in the NeurIPS 2023 Machine Unlearning Challenge!</p>
