TrialX Year end Hackathon and Prompt-a-thon 2022
Are you ready to challenge yourself and push the boundaries of what you think is possible? Join us for our year-end Hackathon and Prompt-a-thon, where you’ll have the opportunity to work with a team of like-minded individuals to come up with creative solutions to real-world problems. This event is open to anyone with a passion for innovation and a desire to make a difference.
During the hackathon portion of the event, teams will compete to develop the best solution to a given problem. The prompt-a-thon will challenge participants to generate new ideas and approaches to a variety of topics. Prizes will be awarded to the top teams in both categories.
Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to learn, grow, and make a impact. Register now to reserve your spot!
This year we are organizing two events - Hackathon and Prompt-a-thon
Date: 21st Dec To 23rd Dec 2022

Prompt-a-thon
In this Prompt-a-thon, participants will be given the challenge of using ChatGPT, a large language model trained by OpenAI, to generate prompts for creative writing or painting. The goal is to push the boundaries of what’s possible with natural language processing and to come up with creative and inspiring prompts for participants to use in their own writing or artwork.
AI is taking on a life of its own with new innovations such as GPT, ChatGPT, DALL-E, StableDiffusion etc. These large AI models can “speak” human language or “draw” images, all they need is a “prompt”.

Here you can try for yourself with some example prompts. You can even create art pieces with stable diffusion.
The goal of this Prompt-a-thon is to create (write or draw) something unique and innovative using these AI models.
Who: Anyone who can write a prompt! No technical knowledge necessary!
How: You will be provided access to ChatGPT and StableDiffusion. You can try as many prompts but you will submit your best 3 “creations” for evaluation by the judges.
Where: Remote and Srinagar office
When: Dec 21, 22 & 23
Hack the Genome with Distributed Computing
As a developer, you’re no stranger to the challenges of working with large data sets. But when it comes to processing large genomic files, the challenges can seem even more daunting. That’s where hackathons focused on distributed systems come in.
A hackathon is a focused period of time where developers come together to build, test, and showcase their ideas for new and innovative systems for processing large genomic files. The goal is to push the boundaries of what’s possible with distributed systems and come up with creative solutions to real-world problems.
One of the key challenges of working with large genomic files is the sheer size of the data. Genomic data sets can be enormous, and traditional computing systems can struggle to process them quickly and efficiently. Distributed systems, on the other hand, are designed to handle large amounts of data in a scalable and reliable way. By leveraging the power of multiple computers working together, distributed systems can make it possible to process large genomic files in a fraction of the time it would take on a single machine.
Another challenge of working with large genomic files is the need for robust data management. Genomic data is complex and often requires specialized algorithms and techniques for analysis. Distributed systems can help with this by providing tools and frameworks for managing and analyzing large data sets in a scalable and reliable way.
Human genome is large and complex. As we move towards personalized medicine, processing the genome to identify drugs that work for an individual is a challenging task. This hackathon will focus on using distributed technologies such as Apache Spark or other technologies to process large genomic files. You will be provided with a large file and expected computation to performed on these files:
- Kmer counting — https://bioinfologics.github.io/post/2018/09/17/k-mer-counting-part-i-introduction/
- Sequence alignment — https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/sequence-alignment-problem/
Who: Developers who want to learn distributed computing and apply to real world bioinformatics problems.
How: You will be provided with a large genomic sequence and a cloud account with Apache Spark
Where: Remote and Srinagar office
When: Dec 21, 22 & 23
