Project Y2018/NMT-4668 (Micro-Stress- MAP-CM)

Absys has been granted by Community of Madrid Regional Government for the next three years with the project “Determination of microscopic residual stresses using diffraction methods, EBSD maps, and evolutionary algorithms” under the call synergistic R&D projects in new and emerging scientific areas at the frontier of science and of an interdisciplinary nature, co-financed by the Operational Programmes of the European Social Fund and the European Development Regional Fund , 2014-2020, of the Community of Madrid. This project will be developed in collaboration with CENIM. More Info

COST Action CA15140

Absys is actively participating in COST Action CA15140 Improving Applicability of Nature-Inspired Optimisation by Joining Theory and Practice (ImAppNIO). More Info . Nature-inspired search and optimisation heuristics are easy to implement and apply to new problems. However, in order to achieve good performance it is usually necessary to adjust them to the problem at hand. Theoretical foundations for the understanding of such approaches have been built very successfully in the past 20 years but there is a huge disconnect between the theoretical basis and practical applications. The development of powerful analytical tools, significant insights in general limitations of different types of nature-inspired optimisation methods and the development of more practically relevant perspectives for theoretical analysis have brought impressive advances to the theory-side of the field. However, so far impact on the application-side has been limited and few people in the diverse potential application areas have benefitted from these advances.

The main objective of the COST Action is to bridge this gap and improve the applicability of all kinds of nature-inspired optimisation methods. It aims at making theoretical insights more accessible and practical by creating a platform where theoreticians and practitioners can meet and exchange insights, ideas and needs; by developing robust guidelines and practical support for application development based on theoretical insights; by developing theoretical frameworks driven by actual needs arising from practical applications; by training Early Career Investigators in a theory of nature-inspired optimisation methods that clearly aims at practical applications; by broadening participation in the ongoing research of how to develop and apply robust nature-inspired optimisation methods in different application areas.

glUCModel

glUCModel is a web application, available in internet with a double purpose: improving the control of diabetes and helping both diabetics and physicians to manage the disease. The requirement was to make glUCModel multi-platform, so that the type of device was not a restriction. To this end, we have tested it in several devices, like smartphones, tablets, laptops or personal computers with different operating systems (Windows, GNU/Linux, iOS), and with different web browsers (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Safari). glUCModel is composed of five different modules, that is, a data interface, a database, and the three novel contributions in this field: a recommender system, an e-learning course and the glucose model:

  1. Data interface: It is the core module of the application, connecting all the modules. It is used to allow diabetics to query and update all necessary data for the control of their illness. On the other hand, physicians can track the evolution of the patient.
  2. Database: In the database glUCModel stores the information about users (patients and physicians), medical tests and diabetic measurements (glycemias, sport activities, food intakes, etc.). Furthermore, the recommender system and the e-learning course also store this data here.
  3. glUCModel Recommender System (g-RS): The function of g-RS is to evaluate the patient data. With this information, the system creates suggestions about how the diabetic can improve his control about the diabetes and what habits he should modify to improve his quality of life. g-RS includes an Inbox, where the patient receives recommendations in an e-mail message format.
  4. E-learning module: A virtual e-learning space where the patient has all the necessary information about diabetes. In this environment, there are documents with theoretical concepts to resolve the patient doubts. It also presents several tools to help on the education, like tests, calendar, forum and glossary.
  5. Glucose model module: Supported by evolutionary computation techniques, this module obtains a customized model the each patient’s glucose blood levels using the information available in the database.

Plan Avanza i+D+I

Plan INNPACTO

  • IYELMO: PLATAFORMA DE SERVICIOS EN LA NUBE PARA OPERACIONES EN MERCADOS FINANCIEROS : En los mercados de acciones, divisas y comodities, se mueven al día cantidades inmensas de dinero, lo que representa una oportunidad de obtener beneficio, pero también presenta el peligro de sufrir grandes pérdidas. El volumen diario del mercado de divisas asciende a unos tres trillones de dólares. Es completamente necesario aplicar el enfoque científico a la toma de decisiones de inversión en estos mercados. En el proyecto IYELMO se van a desarrollar técnicas de trading cuantitativo, que son una combinación de análisis técnico y estadístico, que generan señales de compra y venta, junto con técnicas de gestión del dinero, que tiene en consideración el riesgo y el beneficio, el valor total de la cuenta, y solo tiene en consideración hechos probados matemáticamente. El proyecto IYELMO tiene el reto tecnológico de construir una plataforma de cálculo de alta disponibilidad, bajo tiempo de respuesta, que genere buenas señales de operaciones para los mercados financieros, disponible para todo aquel que tenga acceso a Internet. El proyecto IYELMO se dirige a las empresas o ciudadanos que necesiten una fuente de financiación sin riesgo, y sin coste. El acceso a los sistemas que generan las operaciones se hará mediante Internet. Consorcio: IDEA, IXOPS, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid
