Applied Assessment Notes

Studies

Five reproducible assessments of complex models, protocols and algorithms.

Each dossier starts with a reconstructed educational setting. The situations are not historical case records; the calculations are genuinely run and their limitations are published.

03Industrial modellingREVISE

Compute capacity

Estimating the future cost of compute capacity, defining what could actually be traded, and showing why a credible market requires telemetry, forecasting and verifiable delivery.

01Quantitative financeNO-GO

Portfolio optimization

A backtest above the CAC 40 is not enough: costs, stability, sensitivity and uncertainty change the decision.

02Blockchain & riskNO-GO

Protocol R7

A cross-chain bridge works under normal conditions. The real question is what it loses when its assumptions stop holding.

04Market microstructureREVISE

High-frequency trading

An order whose price is touched is not necessarily filled. Queue, delay, fees and adverse selection erase the apparent edge.

05AI & bioinformaticsCONDITIONAL

HELIX-96

An AI score ranks thousands of mutations. The question is not only what ranks first, but whether its probabilities travel to a new protein.
