Sirca is working to deploy cutting edge data analysis tools to complement our data sources as part of our ongoing strategy aimed at improving research outcomes.
One initiative we have underway is working with Macquarie University, a Sirca Member, in exploring issues in Laser Physics; one strand of this research involves the development and application of methods to find non-linear and chaotic structure in streaming data. These methods will be directly applicable to the analysis of streams of financial market data.
The project has a PhD scholarship available for a suitable candidate, details of the opportunity can be found at:
