This year&#8217;s challenge called for participants to develop robust methods for filling in gaps in multiparameter physiologic data. These      techniques have many potential applications ranging from sleep studies to      surgery to sports medicine to intensive care. Fifty-three teams competed this year. A UT team from the      Department of Mechanical, Aerospace, and Biomedical Engineering designed a      technique combining neuron network models with a      nonlinear feedback mechanism, which can achieve up to 89% of accuracy in      data reconstruction. The team received a $500 cash award. The team included three graduate students: Joseph McBride, Adam Sullivan and <a href=\"https:\/\/legacy.nimbios.org\/personnel\/gras\" target=\"_blank\">Henian Xia<\/a> (who is a NIMBioS Graduate Research Assistant) as well as two      undergraduate students: Erica Hawkins and Robert Wham. The team was assisted by J.
