ALGOGEM

Inspiration

Auctions turn uncertainty into fast decisions. I wanted a strategy that could reason about value instead of chasing every item.

What it does

ALGOGEM is a Python auction bot that uses probability, expected value, and risk to guide bidding decisions under limited resources.

How it was built

The bot was implemented in Python, with quantitative decision rules translated into testable bidding logic.

Challenges

The central challenge was balancing expected return against uncertainty and resource limits.

What I learned

I learned how small modeling assumptions can change a strategy and how to turn quantitative reasoning into working code.
