The team of OUHK Computing student Fire Ka-Yan CHAN and OUHK BBA student CHAN Ching Hsiang beat 27 teams from local universities and were crowned “Best Overall Return” champion in the Computational Finance Competition 2018. The competition was co-organized by Global eSolutions and IEEE/HK Computational Intelligence Society. The competition involved developing strategies and algorithms for trading stocks.
由 Global eSolutions(GES) 舉辦，電機及電子工程師學會—智能運算分會協辦的「第二屆計量金融程式交易擂台」，由公大電腦的陳嘉欣同學，和公大金融學的詹景翔同學，在蔡秉文博士及呂國輝博士安排下，組成團隊。他們研發一套用於股票市場交易的程式，在二十七隊比賽隊伍中，脫穎而出，成功奪得「最佳回報」組別的冠軍。他們並同時得到「風險調整回報」組別的亞軍。他們在十二月廿一日假浸會大學舉辦的頒獎典禮暨研討會中，在GES的主席Ken Chung手中，接受證書及現金獎。
恭喜兩位同學！並期望他們再接再勵，在金融科技的領域中繼續發展。

After graduating from OUHK, Krutz obtained an M.Sc. in Engineering Management from CityU. He is now completing his second master degree, M.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering, at CUHK. Krutz has a wide range of working experience. He has been with Siemens, VTech, and PCCW.
Hugo Leung Wai-yin, who graduated from his four-year programme in 2015, won the Best Paper Award for his ‘intelligent pill-dispenser’ design at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering’s International Conference on Consumer Electronics – China 2015.
The pill-dispenser alerts patients via sound and LED flashes to pre-set dosage and time intervals. Unlike units currently on the market, Hugo’s design connects to any mobile phone globally. In explaining how it works, he said: ‘There are three layers in the portable pillbox. The lowest level is a controller with various devices which can be connected to mobile phones in remote locations. Patients are alerted by a sound alarm and flashes. Should they fail to follow their prescribed regime, data can be sent via SMS to relatives and friends for follow up.’ The pill-dispenser has four medicine slots, plus a back-up with a LED alert, topped by a 500ml water bottle. It took Hugo three months of research and coding to complete his design, but he feels it was worth all his time and effort.
Hugo’s public examination results were disappointing and he was at a loss about his future before enrolling at the OUHK, which he now realizes was a major turning point in his life. He is grateful for the OUHK’s learning environment, its industry links and the positive guidance and encouragement from his teachers. The University is now exploring the commercial potential of his design with a pharmaceutical company. He hopes that this will benefit the elderly and chronically ill, as well as the society at large.
Soon after completing his studies, Hugo joined an automation technology company as an assistant engineer. He is responsible for the design and development of automation devices. The target is to minimize human labor and increase the quality of products. He is developing products which are used in various sections, including healthcare, manufacturing and consumer electronics.
