SAMA is organizing a 3-week-long Mediation Awareness Program Initiative (MAP Initiative) with
the vision to solve the problem of access to justice.
About SAMA
Sama is a leading Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) institution dedicated to resolving disputes efficiently and fairly through its digital platform. Sama has handled over 2.6cr cases since its beginning.
About IMW Hackathon
The IMW Hackathon 2023 is a 3-week-long challenge bringing together engineers, technologists, lawyers, designers, business professionals, and students to create applications that use the latest innovative technology to improve legal services and access to justice.
Objective
The objective of this hackathon challenge is to develop an algorithm or module that can accurately assess the complexity of a given case based on certain predetermined factors. The module should provide a complexity score or classification based on the parameters of the case.
Team Size
3 (Max)
Eligibility
Students from any undergraduate stream.

Evaluation
Deliverables: Participants are expected to create a functional module that can:
● Accept input data containing information on the above case complexity factors.
● Process the input data to compute a complexity score or classification.
● Integrate seamlessly with the existing Sama ODR platform.
Evaluation Criteria: Projects will be evaluated based on the following criteria:
● Accuracy: The ability of the module to accurately assess case complexity.
● Efficiency: The speed and resource efficiency of the algorithm.
● Scalability: The module’s ability to handle a large volume of cases.
● Innovation: The creativity and originality of the solution.
