Their model didn't win. IBM's model won, based on actual metrics around useful insights.

The IBM team got $5,000 and the second place/honorable mention NYU got $2,000. So going by prize amounts, the Duke model was still pretty good.

IBM turned the model/paper into a toolkit: https://www.ibm.com/blogs/research/2019/08/ai-explainability... Their model seems to be a variant of decision trees that has a knob controlling how complicated the trees are.

And the evaluation was completely subjective, so there's not any meaning to the Duke people losing besides that the judges didn't like them.
