SAMPLE PROJECTS
Partnering With Our Clients To Deliver Computational Math / Artificial Intelligence enabled Impact
MARKET RISK DETECTION AND EXPLANATION FOR A TIER 1 EUROPEAN BANK
A banking client was looking to capture spikes in perceived risk in companies within its portfolio of securities (bonds) and explain them via external financial newsfeed data.
Math Labs used its own advanced NLP frameworks to explain the risk spikes relating them to concepts embedded in news on risk anomalies and their intensity of impacts.
PERSONALIZATION FOR A TOP TIER HEALTHCARE OPERATOR
Building of a robust advanced analytics engine to help our client create actionable insights on a series of personalization levers that potentially impacted the delivery quality to their target patient cohort
EVALUATION OF A QUANTUM MATHEMATICS BASED R&D FIRM
Helping a top 10 global technology major unwrap and undertake an 'under the hood' assessment of the R&D firm's key computational engine for a strategic investment.
This was done via a techno-mathematical due-diligence of the investee firm's end to end quantum mathematics and AI based algorithm pathway.
A world class, multi-disciplinary and objective 'Research based Build' methodology - that ensures project success even in highly complex and otherwise 'difficult to break' problems - away from the traditional narrow 'data-science' pathway. Importantly, this takes away the individual data-scientist's own 'bias' away from problem solving.
CUTTING EDGE RESEARCH IN ENTERPRISE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS CORE TO MATH LABS
CURRENT RESEARCH
ANOMALY ANALYSIS
Understanding ‘anomalous patterns’ represents a significant area of interest to Math Labs, given the range of use-cases it represents.
At our lab, we look at anomalies such as 'financial fraud', 'machine failure' through the lens of 'evolution', away from the more common approach of considering these a single step phenomenon - requiring us to unify singular approaches from across mathematical fields, rather than limiting ourselves to traditional AI.
AUTO DATA SPACE OPTIMIZATION
Math Labs leverages multi-disciplinary approaches to transform data to its highly optimized version (technically - to a more optimal subspace), which 'significantly amplifies' the power of machine learning models applied on it.
This does away with the painfully manual & ad-hoc process of decisions that determine what final data enters a clustering / supervised learning model - not only optimizing the pre-model 'data science expert' stage, but also enhancing the efficiency of a typical data science life-cycle by over 50%
SUPERVISED FEATURE EXTRACTION FROM TEXTUAL DATA
Extraction of an optimal, hidden 'concepts-space' from text - that maximizes the ability to explain a response variable - could expand the usage of experts/analysts' opinions and even world / social media data in enterprise supervised learning.
Math Labs is working to bring about a robust, trust-able methodology to this exciting area, by approaching this as a manifold optimization problem - that requires combining natural language processing with, algebraic-mathematics and statistics.
