Cyprus university signs MoU to advance AI-driven financial modelling

The University of Cyprus and Boltzmann Research, a team of scientists seeking to tackle the challenge of predicting financial markets, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), according to a statement released this week.

The MoU, signed by professor Konstantinos Fokianos, Head of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Cyprus, and Chariton Christou, CEO of Boltzmann Research, outlines mutual goals to advance research in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Statistics, and time series forecasting.

According to the statement, a key component of the agreement is the establishment of an undergraduate student award aimed at recognising excellence in the field of statistics.

CEO of Boltzmann Research Chariton Christou said that “we are immensely proud to announce our strategic partnership with the University of Cyprus’ Department of Mathematics and Statistics”.

“At Boltzmann Research, we believe in the power of data to transform industries and enhance decision-making processes,” he stated.
