Generative Models for Financial Time-Series Predictions

The intern will work on applying new advances from the field of Machine Learning to models which make predictions about time-series data. The models have the desirable property modeling the distribution of outcomes in a way that we can sample from, allowing us to account for uncertainty in the model’s predictions. By making more accurate […]

Speech recognition for older, pathological voices

Some diseases and brain injuries can seriously impair language. Patterns in an individual’s speech can allow computers to describe these impairment with a high degree of accuracy. These techniques can be used to test large groups of people for drug trials and potentially replace pen-and-paper based testing methods. To fully automate this process, speech recognition […]

Using Machine Learning to Optimize a Workflow Management System.

Workflow management frameworks support the creation of task dependencies and make efficient use of resources while running those workloads. Typically, these tasks can be long running processes like machine learning algorithms or access data from databases. Workflow management consists of mapping tasks to suitable resources and the management of workflow execution in a cloud environment. […]

Linguistic Data Science for the Development of a Business Corpus

This project is dedicated to the development of a new business corpus as a novel data for the company’s business intelligence. It focuses on linguistic pre-processing for the business domain using two types of collected corpora: text and speech. An automatic annotation of the pre-processed business corpus will be completed using labels related to sentiment […]
