Ask HN: Short Term ML Contract Project

Analytical Flavor Systems is looking for a time series prediction expert to work on a very short term project with us for the next ~72 hours.

We'll pay market rate for this fixed scope project, and successful delivery could lead to future contract work or full-time employment in the future.

The problem statement:

Given a multivariate data.frame with 3 "products", each observed at 4 treatments (control, normal, accelerated, and super-accelerated), at a variety of time points (irregular daily observations) - build a model to predict the final multivariate outcome of any time & treatment combination.

Restrictions:

1) the solution must be in R (any external packages OK)

2) the solution must be a single model object that can be used on new data, without retraining on the new data.

If this is something that interests you, and you'd like to start work immediately, please email me at jason@gastrograph.com with "Time Series Trial" in the subject line.

Cheers! - Jason
