The Rising Star Algorithm

The algorithm is the core of InnoBors. It is a sliding window over 90 days (variable=$SlidingWindow) creating a "value", the rising star index for a company.

Input parameters

The RSI (rising star index) is calculated from

  • expert score ($ExpertScoring)
  • total Invest (k) - $TotalInvest
  • new invest (in the period) - $NewInvest
  • number of Comments (in the period) - $Comment
  • total Thumbs up - $Thumbs
  • new Thumbs up (in the period) - $NewThumbs
  • Random numbers to avoid "inverse engineering" - $RANDOM
  • Delay since Børs-Introduction - $BorsEntry

Based on the algorithm below, the RSI is calculated.

algorithm

  • SlidingWindow = 90 days
  • The RSI is updated every night at 02:41h, thus users will not see an immediate effect, but only an update the next day
RSI= INT( 2.6 $ExpertScoring/50
+ 2.1 $TotalInvest/20000
+ 8.9 $NewInvest/20000
+ 2.1 $Comment
+ 1.8 $Thumbs
+ 4.3 $NewThumbs
+ $RANDOM
+ $BorsEntry )

Mathematical operations

  • INT = create integer of number , e.g. INT(50.3)=50, INT(2.7)=3
  • $RANDOM is a random number between 1 and 5
  • $BorsEntry = 24 - Number of Month since entry, ($BorsEntry > 0)
    • Example: Entry: Oct2011 Date: Feb2012 -> $BorsEntry=20
    • Example: Entry: Oct2010 Date: Feb2012 -> $BorsEntry=8
    • Example: Entry: Oct2009 Date: Feb2012 -> $BorsEntry=0
