Step 1
Regularized Data
Numerai researches and combines a large number of data sources together and transforms the data into regularized features and targets to create a pure dataset for Numerai’s data science community.

Step 2
Modeling
Datasets are made available to our community of thousands of data scientists who compete to create the best predictive models in our data science tournament.

Step 3
Stakes
Data scientists stake their best models with our cryptocurrency, NMR. Good models are rewarded with more NMR. Bad models have their stakes burned.

Step 4
Weighted Meta Model Signal
Numerai creates the Stake-Weighted Meta Model by combining the latest predictions from the tournaments and outputs a signal for each stock in our investable universe.

Step 5
Portfolio Construction
Convex optimization turns Meta Model signal into a portfolio by constraining risk factors such as country, sector and market risk.

Step 6
Portfolio Returns
Numeral‘s returns are uncorrelated with the market and uncorrelated with traditional quant funds creating a differentiated and diversifying asset for institutional allocators.
