CDC Text Classification Marathon

Every day, work-related injury records are generated. In order to alleviate the human effort expended with coding such records, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, in close partnership with the Laboratory for Innovation Science at Harvard, is interested in improving their NLP/ML model to automatically read injury records and classify them according to the Occupational Injury and Illness Classification System. Participants are asked to build a model based on the given training data. The model will need to make predictions for a test file.
