01 / IMPLEMENTATION & CONTRIBUTION
What the work involves
Donald implemented feature and label contracts, time-aware cross-validation, supervised training, out-of-fold aggregation, and model persistence for industry-aware equity research.
Technical depth
Cross-sectional winsorization, industry normalization, multi-horizon training, purged/embargoed temporal splits, deterministic model comparison and structured prediction/evaluation contracts.
