Tutorial

This step-by-step guideline will walk you through everything you need to participate in the Medprompt Hackathon 2025 on Kaggle. Whether you’re new to data science competitions or an experienced participant, this process is designed to be simple and accessible:

  • No programming required: You will not need to write code or have any programming experience. Your main task is to edit and optimize a single prompt in a provided Jupyter notebook.

  • No high-end hardware needed: All work takes place on the Kaggle platform using their cloud servers. You don’t need a powerful computer or special setup—just an internet connection and a Kaggle account.

  • No model adjustments necessary: The language model and all settings are fixed. For final evaluation, only your edited prompt will be used. Please focus solely on prompt optimization.

In this guideline, you will learn how to:

  1. Join the competition and access all required materials,

  2. Download and import the provided Jupyter notebook,

  3. Locate and edit the prompt section to test your ideas,

  4. Run the notebook to generate predictions and outputs,

  5. Adjust the number of cases you process,

  6. Submit your results for evaluation—directly through Kaggle.
