[DMANET] The Airbus Beluga Competition is open!

To all sequential decision-making lovers,

we are announcing that the Beluga™ Airbus Competition has officially begun! We're thrilled to invite you to share your ideas for advancing trustworthy AI and decision-support in real-world industrial applications.
This unique opportunity allows you to develop and test solutions (any approach is welcome!) that address real-world challenges in the Beluga™ cargo system, focusing on optimizing loading and unloading management processes.

Here's what you'll tackle:
1. Scalability (Deterministic) - Ensure solutions scale efficiently.
2. Scalability (Probabilistic) - Account for stochastic events.
3. Explainability - Make decisions transparent and understandable.
