Hi, MikeMirzayanov

Why can't we just write a neural network which learns what obfuscation means and can read through all submissions after training the model, it will automatically flag ppl who are obfuscating?

Isn't trying to hide code or make it hard to read against policy?

The solution seems very simple to me, just make a NN. You already have so much data from past?

If you need more data,

make everyone who wants to participate in the next contest (and for each subsequent contest) , be allotted a random submission in history of codeforces. They have to judge if its obfuscation or not. Once its submitted then they can register. People with higher rating will have higher say in whether a submission is really obfuscated. Something like Amazon Mechanical Turk.

Use your loyal coders(however much remaining) to help us clean and purge this community!

(Reading through a code to understand obfuscation doesnt take more than 1-2 mins max)

Something like Overwatch in CS:GO or Dota 2.

Usually these obfuscations are something which is unpleasant to see like :

#define aCKRwrziTvHUKOb namespace
#define MPezggetwZGdgAP std;
#define ZccvuqPPyfgbiUB void
#define CrBidxvFCuXRFfi rec(int
#define zgSXTvGZhXIXbPI i,

#define RKihtArgxWfmtHk n){
#define MTWPxisrdsAJYui if(dp[i]
#define IRkVmFbUteZgdXs !=

#define SaXSjwuXLwcOzwh ==
#define yHlQJPkqqxGVElR =dp[val];
#define zuSudVNNnTeXLrb else
#define eNsAhgxrIasEuwT +=dp[val];
#define ThwvzPZPZZPpdld }
#define AqTIpcgDqQwpStw dp[i]
#define SCwqnTYHejUquwY min(ans,sum);
#define mdclyBiKxOAzScg signed

#define PcpfoWUmFqnXNMU while(t--){
#define aMSXiKUQFESTnOo n,
#define UODNjQColDSzmZF k;
#define mJOpfluVcXHhFiA n
#define ZdaYMxfvfXISxUE vector<int>
#define eXuOZNCDQtERdfk c(n);
#define SWVdvoARmbsJOuT for(int
#define LxTydVtSGycalcP i=0;i<n;i++){

#define iBWkDhVOHchULLr i=0;i<k;i++){
#define ocVLKFsTwxyPSJG p[i];
#define nsldEPCPAEvxAKD c[p[i]-1]
#define qWVeWDPOPhnHhIx 0;

We can end this problem of obfuscation and cheating once and for all, What say?
