Cunha, Pedro; Barbosa, Paulo; Ferreira, Fábio; Silva, Tânia; Martins, Nuno; Soares, Filomena; Carvalho, VítorRegardless of the type of sport, coaches must perform the difficult task of evaluating the performance of athletes. In some cases, this task is aided using technology which provides tools for this purpose. When the sport considered is taekwondo this scenario does not apply as the athlete evaluation methods used are mostly manual. Thus, the project presented in this paper has the main objective to develop a syst...

Reconstructing cryptocurrency processes via Markov chains
Araújo, Tanya; Barbosa, PauloThe growing attention on cryptocurrencies has led to increasing research on digital stock markets. Approaches and tools usually applied to characterize standard stocks have been applied to the digital ones. Among these tools is the identification of processes of market fluctuations. Being interesting stochastic processes, the usual statistical methods are appropriate tools to their reconstruction. There, beside...
