Title
-
Efficient stream processing and machine learning for stock market data (industry project)
-
Goal
-
Build an stream processing infrastructure for stock market data
-
Description
- High volumes of data that are generated continuously are a challenge for many application domains. Efficient implementation of a streaming pipeline is crucial to make processing feasible, and opens the opportunity for applying machine learning techniques on the data stream.
The goal in this project is to evaluate and extend an existing system for high-performance stream processing, and to then use simple machine learning techniques on the data stream. The main platform is a recently developed, open source library [1], [2]. In the first step a systematic evaluation of performance and throughput of this library, in comparison with alternatives such as Apache-Kafka [3] should be performed. Possible extensions and enhancements to the performance of the library should be considered. In the second step, simple machine learning techniques should be employed to learn characteristics about the data stream. As underlying data streams, publicly available market data should be used [4], [5], [6], though commercial data integrations could also be optimised [7], [8]. If you are interested in low latency and high throughput data pipelines and want to gain experience with advanced optimization techniques, this might be the project for you!
