GANDALF PROJECT – 23rd e 24th September 2017

Gandalf Project was founded from the encounter between the world of engineering and finance. “AI” (Artificial Intelligence) is a branch of engineering that deals with computer techniques to replicate some of the processes characteristic of biological organisms, able to solve complex problems such as trading decisions.

In particular, in the eighties, with the advent of early computers, some large financial institutions fueled research in the field of genetic algorithms and neural networks. It passed by the validation of discretionary systems, optimization of automated systems, through the characterization of models of risk management.
