Consultant position open

got this in my e-mail. If anyone is interested e-mail me and I'll forward the name/e-mail of the author.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Using neural net, genetic algs or fuzzy logic to identify price patterns
(e.g.
head and shoulder) has been demonstrated to be a useful venture.
However,
determining the right feature space that optimally disciminates between
examples that do and do not have the desired price patterns is an art
form
requiring skill. For example, good features need to be invariant to
price
shift and scale, and maybe also invariant to trend and volatility. (BTW,
these
requirements make a good wavelet.)

There are many folks who want to advance in using NN, GA and FL but
haven't a
clue how to preprocess and/or model their data. I am compiling a list
of those
who are good at this task and would like to work as a consultant (long
term or
short term) for anyone needing these services. Sort of like the list of
names
in the Omega Research catalog; however, to keep this professional, I
will have
a complaint hotline. Any consultant creating repeated legitimate
complaints
will be taken off the list.

Your name, phone number (and maybe web link) will be posted on a page at
my web
site. No charge to anyone. Free service to the community.

Email DIRECTLY to me if you are interested.
