Final Test Phase: Failed Time limit exceeded

Dear Organizers,

I hope this message finds you well. I am encountering "Failed Time limit exceeded" errors in the Final Test Phase despite using the same Docker container that successfully completed the 5-minute per case limit during the Preliminary Phase.

Could this issue be due to the platform in the Final Test Phase? Are all the test data and training data (latest version) consistent in terms of spacing, image size, grayscale range, etc.? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance.

Dear Pengcheng Shi,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are aware of the "Failed Time limit exceeded" errors occurring during the Final Test Phase and are actively investigating the issue, with support from the grand-challenge team. It seems that other participants are also encountering the same problem.

We will provide an update as soon as we have more information. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve this.

Are all the test data and training data (latest version) consistent in terms of spacing, image size, grayscale range, etc.?

The spacing and grayscale range of the test and training data are consistent, but please note that image size may vary due to different acquisition machines being used.

Best regards, Luca Lumetti

Dear Pengcheng Shi,

I am pleased to inform you that all the issues related to the time limit error have been solved also thanks to the support of grand-challenge team! I've already re-run your job, and all the others failed for the same reason.
