The objective of the project was to recommend a distribution strategy of oil and gas products to several outlets located across different parts of the country.
Flame Detection
The problem statement given to us was to study the characteristics of the signals collected from the flame detector and design an algorithm maintaining a balance between the early warning issued during a fire outbreak and minimum false alarms.
Matching Algorithm for Operations Management
The seat matching problem can be posed as a weighted bipartite matching problem with the seats being the objects to be matched. The first solution to the problem manifested as what is now known as the Hungarian algorithm.
Momentum Trading Strategies
Momentum based strategies employ several technical indicators to identify changes in trends. Moving Average Convergence Divergence or MACD is one of the most commonly used technical indicators and in a trending market it performs well.
