The University of Missouri hosted an Artificial Intelligence Hackathon for Show Me Research Week.

The hackathon took place in Mumford Hall, a 100-year-old building off University Avenue on Mizzou's campus. Students pitched and presented their AI ideas to judges from around the country, Seattle, St. Louis and Dallas, who work in AI at companies like IBM.

The history of Mumford Hall, which has a white brick exterior, huge trees, just now growing leaves that cast shade and a perpetual breeze on the lush front lawn of the building, contrasts the modern, futuristic ideas swirling inside the lecture hall.

The interior of the building is a creamy white with wood crown molding and staircase banisters. Huge windows cast rays of sunlight and blue skies onto the rows of chairs holding students, judges, advisors and guests.

Pizza was ordered and acoustic Taylor Swift songs were playing on a speaker to set the tone for an afternoon of pitches.

Each team had to be made up of 2-3 members, as well as a faculty advisor. The students had to choose a domain-specific problem and suggest an AI solution.

And each team only had five minutes and one slide presentation to sell their idea.

The idea and the plan for it was presented on April 17.

Once the judges gave feedback, asked questions and stressed concerns, the teams had two days to bring their ideas to life.

The final tool was presented on April 20. The teams could source their data from outside data or use their own data they have compiled.

The first three teams were announced at the SMRW Award Ceremony on April 21.

The hackathon is meant to give a platform to MU students to show their skills in developing AI applications to solve real-world problems. It was organized by the Graduate Student Organization of the Institute for Data Science and Informatics.

Two other organizations on campus, the Bond Life Sciences Center and the Office of Undergraduate Research, collaborated with Mizzou to ensure the week was a success.

The Research Week lasted from Monday, April 17, to Friday, April 21, and it is meant to be a time to celebrate student and postdoctoral research and creativity.

Over 450 students showcased their work from around several schools and colleges at Mizzou.

Before the COVID 19 pandemic, both organizations had their own well established research weeks in order to celebrate the accomplishments. Eventually, it was decided that a campus-wide showcase was necessary for the entire research community.

Mizzou calls this research week, "a celebration of discovery," as well as a representation of the university's values, which are respect, responsibility, discovery and excellence.
