About Hackathon:
Insurance Claim Prediction
An insurance policy is an agreement between a company and a customer by which a company undertakes to provide a guarantee of compensation for specified loss, damage or illness in return for the payment of a specified premium. A premium is a sum of money that the customer needs to pay regularly to an insurance company for this guarantee.
For example, you pay a premium of Rs. 3000/- each year for car insurance with a coverage of Rs. 100,000/-. Unfortunately, in case of an accident, the car is severely damaged. In that case, the insurance provider company will bear the cost of damage etc. for up to Rs. 100,000.
Now if you are wondering how can a company bear such a high cost when it charges a premium of only Rs. 3000/- per year only i.e. where the concept of probability comes into the picture. For example, there might be thousands of customers who would be paying a premium of Rs. 3000 every year just like you, but only a few of them (say 2-3) would have had an accident that year and not everyone. This way everyone shares the risk of everyone else.
Our client is an Insurance company that provides insurance for cars to its customers. In this hackathon, you will be closely working with the insurer in understanding the behaviour of the policyholders.

Participants benefit from one-on-one feedback, publication on a respected platform, recognition from a global audience, and monetary rewards for each published article. Additionally, the top articles receive special rewards.
Each article must be original, and pass plagiarism and not AI generated content checks. You can submit multiple articles as long as each is distinct. Proper citation of all references and image sources is mandatory.
There are no specific requirements to register for the hackathon, although it is recommended to have some basic knowledge of the relevant topics, such as Data Science, Machine Learning, or Deep Learning, along with proficiency in a coding language, preferably Python.
In the Blogathon, an article typically explores a specific topic or idea within Data Science or Generative AI and is required to be at least 1000 words long. A guide, on the other hand, is a more comprehensive resource, covering all aspects of a particular subject in data science, and must be at least 2500 words long. Guides aim to serve as a one-stop resource, providing detailed insights and practical applications, whereas articles might focus on narrower or more specific topics.
Depending on the type of competition, you can participate individually or in a team.
Multiple submissions of the same article are prohibited and could lead to disqualification. Articles failing to meet the required length, originality, or citation standards will be rejected.
AVCC is a community for authors who have had three or more articles published in the Blogathons. Members benefit from monetary rewards for each published article and get the opportunity to showcase their work to a larger audience.
