Rising star algorithm

= 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
