I understand that finalists are selected based on the accuracy score. However, how is the one-hour runtime constraint evaluated? For example, what happens if a finalist’s code does not finish processing all 80 samples within the one-hour limit ? Are they disqualified ?
Hi @Sya and welcome to the Challenges community 
you are correct, a final submission must run for all 80 samples within one hour. If a submission does not meet the time requirement the submission will be disqualified.
