Expert real-world insight on the intricacies of quantitative trading before, during, and after the trade The Elements of Quantitative Investing is a comprehensive guide to quantitative investing, covering everything readers need to know from inception of a strategy, to execution, to post-trade analysis, with insight into all the quantitative methods used throughout the investment process. This book describes all the steps of quantitative modeling, including statistical properties of returns, factor model, portfolio management, and more. The inclusion of each topic is determined by real-world applicability. Divided into three parts, each corresponding to a phase of the investment process, this book focuses on well-known factor models, such as PCA, but with essential grounding in financial context. This book encourages the reader to think deeply about simple things. The author, Giuseppe Paleologo, has held senior quantitative research and risk management positions at three of the four biggest hedge fund platforms in the world, and at one of the top three proprietary trading firms. Currently, he serves as the Head of Quantitative Research at Balyasny Asset Management with $21 billion in assets under management. He has held teaching positions at Cornell University and New York University and holds a Ph.D. and two M.S. from Stanford University. This book answers questions that every quantitative investor has asked at some point in their career, including: How do I model multivariate returns? How do I test these models, either developed by me or by commercial vendors? How do I incorporate asset-specific data in my model? How do I convert risk appetite and expected returns into a portfolio? How do I account for transaction costs in portfolio management? The Elements of Quantitative Investing earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of financial practitioners seeking expert insight from a leading financial executive on quantitative investment topics-knowledge which is usually accessible to few and transmitted by one-on-one apprenticeship.

The main goal of this book is to explore the application of 3D printing in medicine and healthcare that could revolutionize drug development and medical equipment production and also improve supply chains, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare. In the fields of medicine, pharmaceuticals, surgical planning, and personalized medical treatment, the novel emergence of 3D printing technology has opened a wide range of potential applications. With personalized solutions that were previously impossible, 3D printing has opened up novel possibilities in patient care, from developing unique medications to manufacturing prosthetics and implants that are particular to each patient. The 14 chapters in this volume present the reader with an array of subjects including: the evolution and background of 3D printing, charting its extraordinary path from its inauspicious origins to its current significance in the field of healthcare. Also discussed are the many kinds of 3D printers that are employed in additive manufacturing, as well as how they are modified for usage in medical settings; the current developments in medical science brought about by 3D printing technology, including the clinical uses of 3D printed models in different medical domains, ranging from cardiovascular illness to tumors, and congenital heart disease; personalized medicine and the creation of dosage forms utilizing 3D printing methods, the benefits and drawbacks of various 3D printing technologies and the applications of these technologies in healthcare, including the creation of immediate-release tablets, capsules, and implants for a range of illnesses; the possibilities of 3D printed anatomical models for surgical planning, the roles of 3D printing technologies that are used to produce surgical guides, knee implants, spinal implants, and other patient-specific applications; the current developments in 3D printed medication delivery devices including regulatory concerns; the field of personalized medicine using 3D printing, and discusses organ models for preoperative diagnostics, permanent non-bioactive implants, local bioactive and biodegradable scaffolds, and direct printing of tissues and organs; the different specialized uses of 3D printing in the medical field, covering topics including hospital management and administration, surgical training for urological operations, ophthalmology, and preserving safety and efficacy in point-of-care. Audience The book will be widely read by all healthcare professionals, biomedical engineers, researchers, and graduate students who are seeking to expand their knowledge of efficient techniques of 3D printing technology in the healthcare sector.
This volume focuses on the fundamentals of additive manufacturing and its components, explains why and what we do, outlines what is crucial to the user, offers details on important applications such as in the aerospace, automotive, or medical areas, and the difficult certification process. This book explores the advancements in additive manufacturing which produces solid, free-form, nearly net-shaped objects. This refers to items that are easy to use, out-of-the-box, and not bound by the design constraints of modern manufacturing techniques. AM expands the definition of 3D printing to encompass a variety of procedures that begin with a three-dimensional computer model, incorporate an AM production procedure, and result in a useful product. The AM process can be confusing due to the rapid rise of competing techniques for fabricating 3D parts. This volume provides a thorough review of the basic components and procedures involved in additive manufacturing. It outlines a road map for where to begin, what to study, how everything goes together, and how AM might enable ideas outside traditional processing to realize those ideas in AM. Furthermore, this book investigates the benefits of AM including affordable access to 3D solid modeling software. With this software, learning is achieved without having to invest in costly industrial equipment. AM encompasses a variety of techniques, including those that use high-intensity beams to fuse powder or wire, and hybrid techniques that combine additive and subtractive manufacturing techniques. AM-related processes have developed at breakneck speed, giving rise to a deluge of acronyms and terminology, not to mention the emergence, acquisition, and demise of new businesses. By combining ideas and aspirations, better methods will be revealed that result in useful products that will serve and contribute to a lasting future. Although expensive commercial additive manufacturing equipment can cost hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars, a lack of access to equipment does not preclude the study of the technology. 3D printing services will undoubtedly become more reasonable for small- and medium-sized organizations as their prices decline. Hybrid 3D plastic printing technologies and low-cost hobbyist 3D weld deposition systems are already in development which will make the best 3D printers accessible and affordable. This book will assist the reader in determining what is required to begin, which software, supplies, and procedures best suit, and where to obtain additional information. Audience The book will be used by engineers and R&D researchers involved in advanced additive manufacturing technology, postgraduate students in various disciplines such as mechanical, manufacturing, biomedical, and industrial engineering, etc. It will also serve as a reference manual for manufacturing and materials engineers involved in additive manufacturing and product development.
