One of its goals is to build a toolkit that combines state-of-the-art machine learning techniques with econometrics in order to bring automation to complex causal inference problems. To date, the ALICE Python SDK (econml) implements orthogonal machine learning algorithms such as the double machine learning work of

  • FinanceToolkit

    Transparent and Efficient Financial Analysis

    Project mention: Work with First, Second and Third Order Greeks Through the Finance Toolkit | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-17

    Over the last year I've spend a significant amount of time creating a Finance Toolkit in Python, it currently features over 150+ different metrics such as financial ratios, models, risk and performance metrics, technical indicators, macro-economic parameters and since today also all Greeks.

    The Finance Toolkit is written in Python and is meant as a free solution to acquire a large range of financial metrics. My goal is to make financial calculations accessible to everyone as there is no point in reinventing the wheel over and over again which I've seen countless of times happen given that I work in the Financial Sector myself.

    If you are interested give it a go: https://github.com/JerBouma/FinanceToolkit and find the recent release notes here that talk about the Greeks: https://github.com/JerBouma/FinanceToolkit/releases/tag/v.1....

    Project mention: Ask HN: What are some actual use cases of AI Agents? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-14

    I'm working on research agents to help with economic, financial, and political research. These agents are open source (see: https://github.com/wgryc/emerging-trajectories).

    The use cases are pretty straight forward and low risk:

    1. Run a Google web search.

    2. Query a news API.

    3. Write a document based on the above, while citing sources.

    Here's an example of something written yesterday, where I'm forecasting whether July 2024 will be the hottest on record: https://emergingtrajectories.com/a/forecast/74

    This is working well in that the writeups are great and there are some "aha" moments, like the agent finding and referencing the The National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC)... Very cool! I wouldn't have thought of it.

    Then there's the part where the agent also tells me that the Oregon Department of Transportation has holidays during the summer, which doesn't matter at all.

    So, YMMV, as they say... But I am more productive with these agents. I wouldn't publish anything formally without confirming and reviewing the content, though.
