What is COMISEF?From the project description: COMISEF is a Research and Training Network, co-ordinated by Peter Winker, University of Giessen. The scope of quantitative research in economics and finance broadens due to the increasing availability of data sets. In order to extract relevant information from these data new statistical procedures are developed often resulting in highly complex optimization problems. Novel optimization procedures are required to tackle these problems without imposing unrealistic assumptions. COMISEF will contribute to the development of these methods, their statistical analysis and their application to problems in statistics, econometrics and finance by concentrating on heuristic optimization methods. In this context, COMISEF will conduct individual and joint research and training activities exploiting the specific expertise of all partners. For more information, please visit the COMISEF homepage. External Articles
The COMISEF project ended in December 2010. The COMISEF homepage and this wiki will remain available (in particular, the working paper collection and the code examples); but the sites will only be irregularly maintained (at best). In June 2011 Wikidot changed the way how mathematical expressions are rendered. As a result, a number of sites now display errors where they should (and did) display equations. We will try to correct these errors if possible; in any case, most sites have links to related working papers or articles. |

COMISEF Wiki FeedbackAt present all content in the Wiki is generated by COMISEF members. However, we actively encourage those external to the project to contact us on any aspect of the Wiki. We are especially keen to learn if any ideas described in the Wiki have been used as a source of reference, or directly and successfully applied to a problem. All feedback is gratefully received.
