Draper Satellite Image Chronology: Pure ML Solution Vicens Gaitan

Can you put order to space and time? This was the challenge posed to competitors of the Draper Satellite Image Chronology Competition (Chronos) which ran on Kaggle from April to June 2016. Over four-hundred Kagglers chose a path somewhere between man and machine to accurately determine the chronological order of satellite images taken over five day spans. In collaboration with Kaggle, Draper designed the competition to stimulate the development of novel approaches to analyzing satellite imagery and other image-based datasets. In this spirit, competitors' solutions were permitted to rely on hand annotations as long as their methodologies were replicable.
