Orchestrating the collection and refinement of large-scale geospatial, economic and human development data -- data which form critical inputs for businesses, investors, policy-makers, regulators and strategists looking to get a timely and accurate read for what’s happening right now on the ground -- is slow, difficult, and expensive. In many countries, such data pipelines don’t exist yet at all. The proliferation of internet-enabled smartphones, with users spanning from globe from Mississippi to Mozambique, is rapidly changing our capabilities in this sector -- and Premise is upending the model by blending modern technology with human intelligence to map reality on the ground faster and more precisely than ever before. In this talk, Premise CTO Joe Reisinger will talk about the evolution of modern data collection on a global scale, why the new frontier of mobile technology is the conduit for the future of business and economics, and the role of alternative economic data as it relates to collection of official government statistics. This presentation was part of the QuantCon 2015 Conference hosted by Quantopian. Visit us at: www.quantopian.com.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithridate

$The preparation of [Mithridatium] was simple in that its ingredients were free of fractional measures. Four vipers cut down small were placed in a solution of sal ammoniac, about one gallon, to which were added nine specified herbs and Attic wine, together with five fresh squills also cut down small. The pot was covered with clay and set upon a fire. When the vapour came out of the four small holes left in the clay seal, dark and turgid, the heat had reached the vipers and they were cooked. The pot was left to cool for a night and day. The roasted matter was taken out and pounded until all was reduced to powder. After 10 days the powder was ready for the next stage of manufacture. (Griﬃn, Br J Clin Pharmacol. 2004)$

"The Mithridatic antidote is composed of fifty-four
ingredients, no two of them having the same weight,
while of some is prescribed one sixtieth part of one
denarius. Which of the gods, in the name of Truth, fixed
these absurd proportions? No human brain could have
been sharp enough. It is plainly a showy parade of the
art, and a colossal boast of science.”
— Pliny (Natural History, XXIX.24-25, ca. AD 77)

This document summarizes the career of Daniel Aisen and the development of a new order type at IEX to address adverse selection. It describes how Aisen worked at RBC developing algorithmic trading strategies, which led him to join IEX to build a dark pool. IEX initially had little adverse selection, but it grew as market share did. IEX then developed a "discretionary peg" order type using its speed bump to avoid trading at prices that were soon to become stale, reducing adverse selection.

Case Studies in Creating Quant Models from Large Scale Unstructured Text by S...

Quantopian

SEC filings provide a window into the health of the company and are immensely important for investors. Historically, the only feasible way to read and interpret filings has been manually, where domain experts interpret filings and provide guidance to public. However, advances in big data technologies and Natural Language processing have enabled its automation. Sameena will discuss how her team created predictive models from text in filings and social media. This presentation was part of QuantCon 2015 hosted by Quantopian. Visit us at: www.quantopian.com.

It is commonly believed that low frequency strategies require only low frequency data for backtesting. We will show that using low frequency data can lead to dangerously inflated backtest results even for low frequency strategies. Examples will be drawn from a closed end fund strategy, a long-short stock strategy, and a futures strategy. This presentation was part of the QuantCon 2015 Conference hosted by Quantopian.

Quantopian

It is widely acknowledged that text analysis offers a view into a massive world of unstructured data. This data offers a goldmine of tradable information ranging from corporate regulatory filings to central bank communications. But, like other areas of “big data,” this material is virtually useless without narrowing the focus. This talk will examine the ways in which deep domain expertise can help refine text analysis data into a powerful investing tool.

Quantopian

Hello, Welcome to QuantCon 2015! It has been an exciting year at Quantopian, and hosting the first annual QuantCon event here in Manhattan, is a great way to kick off 2015. When I founded Quantopian, my goal was to build a platform that brings together quants, hackers, data scientists, finance professionals, and students all in one vibrant online community. Today, that community has grown to over 34,000 people and continues to grow faster than ever. I couldn’t be more excited to bring over 200 of those community members together today in person! Our schedule today features talks and workshops from a wide variety of experts in the fields of computer science, machine learning, algorithmic trading, market structure, and new economy data. I am a huge fan of every speaker in this lineup and encourage you to take advantage of the diversity of their expertise and to think about new ways to approach your investment strategy goals. Thank you for joining us today and being a part of a truly unique movement in the financial investment space. I also want to thank all of our speakers, sponsors, and staff for their generous contributions to make this day a success. I look forward to hearing from you during and after the event about your experiences. I am already thinking about how we can top this meeting next year!

In an ideal world an investor has access to a range of investment opportunities that allow her to create a Balanced portfolio based on her risk/return objectives. Unfortunately we don't live an in ideal world and a lot of the investment opportunities have only been available to the Institutional Investor. That trend has started to change as technology and innovation by startups like AngelList, Wealthfront, and Sliced Investing, among others are lowering the barrier to access and allowing more individuals to create a balanced portfolio that meets their investment objectives. In this talk we'll focus on the need for a balanced portfolio, the investing tools for the 'new-age' investor and the future of individual investing.

This document summarizes Jess Stauth's presentation on being open source in quantitative finance. Some key points: - Open source can benefit quant finance through transparency, robustness from many eyes on code, and access to global talent. However, there are also costs and risks around IP leakage. - Many quant firms use a mosaic of open source and proprietary components. Research tools are often open source while backtesting and production systems rely on proprietary models and data. - Quantopian actively maintains several open source projects and contributes to others like Jupyter, Pandas, and PyMC3 to benefit the quant community. Being open can also help hiring.

Data Modeling the Stock Market Today - Common Pitfalls to Avoid The lure of creating models to predict the stock market has drawn talent from fields beyond finance and economics, reaching into disciplines such as physics, computational chemistry, applied mathematics, electrical engineering and perhaps most recently statistics and what we now refer to as data science. The attraction is clear - the stock market (and the economy/internet at large) throws off massive and ever increasing reams of data from garden variety time-series to complex structured data sets like quarterly financials, to unstructured data sets like conference call transcripts, news articles and of course — tweets! While all this data holds promise - it also holds traps and blind alleys that can be deceptively tricky to avoid. In this session we’ll review some of the common (but not easy!) pitfalls to avoid in creating models for predicting stock returns; overfitting & exploding model complexity, non-stationary processes, time-travel illusions, under-estimation of real-world costs, and as many more as we have time to cover.

"Three Dimensional Time: Working with Alternative Data" by Kathryn Glowinski,...

Quantopian

From QuantCon 2017: Lookahead bias and stale data when used in an algorithm are generally categorized as "incorrect data". In fact, the issue does not lie with the data itself, but instead is an issue of perspective. This talk will examine how data is typically viewed through the lens of time, and why, on the whole, that approach is wrong. At Quantopian, we've tried several ways of handling data with regards to time, and we'll talk about lessons learned along the way. We'll also discuss what multidimensionality means for financial data specifically, and how we can apply this to get better results in backtesting. Additionally, we'll touch on how to apply multidimensionality to more general data, and why it's important for anyone working with applied data to take this approach.

"Fundamental Forecasts: Methods and Timing" by Vinesh Jha, CEO of ExtractAlpha

Quantopian

From QuantCon 2017: Fundamental and quantitative stock selection research has long focused on creating accurate forecasts of company fundamentals such as earnings and revenues. In this talk we examine why fundamental forecasts are powerful and survey some classic methods for generating these forecasts. Next we explore some newer methodologies which can be effective in generating more accurate fundamental forecasts, including new uses of traditional data as well as novel crowdsourced and online behavior databases. Finally, we present new research examining the temporal variation in efficacy of these forecasts with an eye towards understanding the market conditions in which an accurate fundamental forecast can be more or less profitable.

"From Alpha Discovery to Portfolio Construction: Pitfalls and Solutions" by D...

Quantopian

From QuantCon 2017: Implementation is the efficient translation of alpha research into portfolios. It includes portfolio construction and trading. It is a vital step in the quant equity workflow, as poor implementation can ruin even the best alpha ideas. Two crucial challenges must be solved: how to construct a portfolio that most efficiently captures a given alpha signal; and, in the presence of multiple signals, how to optimally combine them into a single composite alpha factor. This talk addresses these challenges, examines common pitfalls in the implementation of quantitative strategies and good practices to avoid them. A common theme is striking the right balance between factor signal purity and investability. We look at how factor models and optimisation techniques help professional investors answer three key questions: · What risks should your risk model be cognisant of? · What objective function should you use? · What effect do investability constraints have on your portfolio?

"Deep Reinforcement Learning for Optimal Order Placement in a Limit Order Boo...

Quantopian

This document discusses using deep reinforcement learning for optimal order placement in a limit order book. Specifically, it discusses using deep Q-learning with neural networks to represent the Q-value function and state representations. The goal is to minimize the volume weighted average price by splitting orders across time periods. State variables include the limit order book, progress, and time. Actions involve placing limit orders at different price levels. Rewards consider price differences, order duration, and unfilled orders. Preliminary results show the agent learns to place orders at the second price level in spreads across time periods and is more aggressive when prices are trending.

"Building Diversified Portfolios that Outperform Out-of-Sample" by Dr. Marcos...

Quantopian

Hierarchical Risk Parity (HRP) portfolios address three major concerns of quadratic optimizers in general and Markowitz’s CLA in particular: Instability, concentration and underperformance. HRP applies modern mathematics (graph theory and machine learning techniques) to build a diversified portfolio based on the information contained in the covariance matrix. However, unlike quadratic optimizers, HRP does not require the invertibility of the covariance matrix. In fact, HRP can compute a portfolio on an ill-degenerated or even a singular covariance matrix, an impossible feat for quadratic optimizers. Monte Carlo experiments show that HRP delivers lower out-of-sample variance than CLA, even though minimum-variance is CLA’s optimization objective. HRP also produces less risky portfolios out-of-sample compared to traditional risk parity methods.

Quantopian

This document discusses opportunities and challenges for machine learning in investing in the data economy. It outlines how machine learning approaches could enable regime-aware investing by overcoming limitations like catastrophic forgetting. However, finance poses unique challenges for machine learning due to its sequential nature and short history of clean explanatory data. The document suggests scientists focus research on scalable approaches for regime-aware investing, like using shallow and deep networks to separately predict returns and market conditions.

"A Framework-Based Approach to Building Quantitative Trading Systems" by Dr. ...

Quantopian

Contrary to popular wisdom the difference between a retail quant trader and a professional portfolio manager is not in "having better trade entry and exit rules". Rather it is the difference in how each approaches the concepts of portfolio optimisation and risk management. Both of these topics are synonymous with heavy math, which can be off-putting for beginner retail systematic traders. Hence, it can be extremely daunting for those without institutional experience to know how to turn a set of trading rules into a robust portfolio and risk management system. In this talk, Mike will discuss how to take a typical retail quant strategy and place it in a professional quantitative trading framework, with proper position sizing and risk assessment, without resorting to pages of formulas or the need to have a PhD in statistics!

Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headed

vikram sood

You can see the future first in San Francisco. Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum. The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war. Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change. Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride. Let me tell you what we see.

B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。只硕大的蛇皮袋手里拎着长铁钩正站在门口朝黑色的屋内张望不好坏人小偷山娃一怔却也灵机一动立马仰起头双手拢在嘴边朝楼上大喊：“爸爸爸——有人找——那人一听朝山娃尴尬地笑笑悻悻地走了山娃立马“嘭的一声将铁门锁死心却咚咚地乱跳当山娃跟父亲说起这事时父亲很吃惊抚摸着山娃的头说还好醒得及时要不家早被人掏空了到时连电视也没得看啰不过父亲还是夸山娃能临危不乱随机应变有胆有谋山娃笑笑说那都是书上学的看童话和小说时多

8. The preparation of [Mithridatium] was simple in that its ingredients were free of fractional measures. Four vipers cut down small were placed in a solution of sal ammoniac, about one gallon, to which were added nine specified herbs and Attic wine, together with five fresh squills also cut down small. The pot was covered with clay and set upon a fire. When the vapour came out of the four small holes left in the clay seal, dark and turgid, the heat had reached the vipers and they were cooked. The pot was left to cool for a night and day. The roasted matter was taken out and pounded until all was reduced to powder. After 10 days the powder was ready for the next stage of manufacture. (Griﬃn, Br J Clin Pharmacol. 2004)

11. "The Mithridatic antidote is composed of fifty-four ingredients, no two of them having the same weight, while of some is prescribed one sixtieth part of one denarius. Which of the gods, in the name of Truth, fixed these absurd proportions? No human brain could have been sharp enough. It is plainly a showy parade of the art, and a colossal boast of science.” — Pliny (Natural History, XXIX.24-25, ca. AD 77) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithridate

National income is not a "primary fact" but an "empirical construct":   "To ascertain income it is necessary to set up a theory from which income is derived as a concept by postulation and then associate this concept with a certain set of primary facts.” —Richard Stone The Accounts of Society, Nobel Memorial Lecture, 1984
