First Milestone Just Around the Corner

There is about 4 days to go until the deadline for the first milestone, so I thought it would be interesting to capture the leaderboard now and then in 4 days, to see if things change wildly. At this stage it can be like a game of poker.

All the top 10 teams are still in the hunt and making daily submissions. Tom & Jerry were late starters but have made astonishing progress to 3rd place. They currently split 3 others who were part of 'The Ensemble', Edward, Willem and B.Yang.

So many teams at the top all have a proven history in data mining competitions. I will be very happy  if those ensemble dudes repeat their performance in the Netflix Prize ;-).
