Applied Mathematics Association
Applying mathematical knowledge to real-world challenges
Student-run applied mathematics association at UPC BarcelonaTech. We solve complex quantitative, optimization, and modeling challenges for industry.
What We Solve Across Industries
Machine Learning & Anomaly Detection
Time-series forecasting, sensor anomaly detection, predictive classification, and deep learning architectures.
Operations Research & Optimization
Combinatorial algorithms, scheduling, vehicle routing, supply chain logistics, and integer programming.
Stochastic Modeling & Simulation
Statistical inference, Monte Carlo simulation, dynamical systems, risk modeling, and estimation under noise.
Featured Project Case Studies
Covariance Matrix Estimation in Financial Time Series
Benchmarked out-of-sample covariance forecasting methods for portfolio optimization. Evaluated sample covariance, adaptive EWMA, Ledoit-Wolf shrinkage, and random-matrix denoising across sliding windows.
Intraday Liquidity Modeling in Crypto-Assets
Analyzed high-frequency order book dynamics across crypto pairs (BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT). Built 1-minute aggregation pipelines and computed a composite Liquidity Score to evaluate TWAP and VWAP execution.
Prediction and Detection of Risk Events in Older Adults Using Multisensor Data
Developed risk detection models using multisensor IoT telemetry for YASYT Robotics. Augmented anonymized in-home alerts with targeted synthetic profiles to train models separating true emergencies from false alarms.
Our Mathematical Consulting Methodology
Each engagement represents over 200 hours of dedicated research, formulation, and production validation.
Problem Definition
Deconstruct business challenges into precise mathematical models.
Theoretical Design
