Dan Calugar on the Role of Sentiment Analysis in Algorithmic Trading: Harnessing Market Emotions for Profit

The Startup Magazine

Algorithmic trading seeks to gauge market sentiment in various ways to better predict price movement that, in turn, will result in better returns. This means humans don’t have to be involved at all in the process once the algorithms and APIs are set up. What do those results look like, though?

Smart Data Visualizations: Quality Assessment Algorithm

Occam's Razor

The Data Visualization Assessment Algorithm. Algorithm might perhaps be a tad bit pompous, as applied here. Perhaps someone reading this blog post is going to help us all out by building a Machine Learning algorithm to assess if a Data Viz is bad, good, or great. :). Time to the most important insight. Scale: Fast. Trust marks.

Quantum Computing – An Update

Steve Blank

They are faster on a small set of specialized algorithms. These special algorithms are what make quantum computers potentially valuable. For example, running Grover’s algorithm on a quantum computer can search unstructured data faster than a classical computer. You start with the algorithm you intend to run. That’s wrong.

Who’s watching the algorithms? 3 Israeli startups predicting performance of AI models

VC Cafe

Data scientist know that the accuracy of the models to make predictions or recommendations, has to do with data quality/annotation and training of the algorithms, but most simply trust the data and thus create a blind spot. As more companies embrace AI for their needs, what happens when the algorithms start slipping?

Match Algorithm and Inputs

SoCal CTO

One of the common questions that I commonly get is: Tony, what inputs should we use as the basis for our matching algorithm? How should the resulting algorithm use those inputs to form matches? Is the resulting algorithm okay to use in your startup? fit into a matching algorithm. This is classic filtering.

Algorithmic Lock In Effects

Eric Friedman

Specifically, thinking through services that use algorithms as a “lock in” mechanism. This is a great example of algorithmically locking me into the service. So, can a algorithm keep you locked into a services? The other big example here is Facebook, with its now famous algorithmic newsfeed change.
