Title: Four essays on applications of filtering methods in finance

The Acfas has presented Gilbert Laporte, Full Professor at HEC Montréal, with the Urgel-Archambault award in physics, mathematics, computer science and engineering.

"Canadian Research Contributes Step Change to World Mining" at the National Post

Christophe Tribes and the NOMAD software ranks honourably at the BBComp blackbox optimization competition held during the GECCO 2016 conference.

Jean-François Bégin, PhD student at HEC Montréal, receives a honorable mention at the 51st Actuarial Research Conference for his presentation "The Pricing of Idiosyncratic Risk in Option Markets". He is supervised by Professor Geneviève Gauthier.

Samuel Pelletier, a PhD student in Administration at HEC Montréal, earned one of three grants handed out by the Institut de l’énergie Trottier. The institute’s awards encourage the next generation of scientists to take on the technological, social and economic issues facing the energy sector.

He will receive up to $43,000 over three years and will use his grant to help increase the efficiency of electric vehicles for parcel deliveries in a city. His work will be overseen by Professors Gilbert Laporte and Ola Jabali. By looking at the transport of goods, he’ll be taking on a sector with a large carbon footprint in Quebec.

Bouchra Nasri, candidate proposed by Bruno Rémillard, will receive a half-fellowship of $22,500.

Feng Li, who will begin a PhD in electrical engineering from Polytechnique in January, earned one of three grants handed out by the Institut de l’énergie Trottier. The institute’s awards encourage the next generation of scientists to take on the technological, social and economic issues facing the energy sector.

His work will be overseen by Professors Roland Malhamé and Jérôme Le Ny. He will dedicate his research project to develop a method of managing energy demand, in order to balance the available electricity reserve.

The Institute for Data Valorization (IVADO), launched with the goal of making Montréal a world leader in big data mining, was awarded the largest grant ever received by our university campus. The Canada First Research Excellence Fund awarded a $93.6 million grant to the centre of expertise founded by HEC Montréal, Polytechnique Montréal and the Université de Montréal.

You have until September 15 to submit an abstract for the 8th Workshop on Dynamic Games in Management Science that will take place from October 27 to 28.
