Hello,
We offer an award and will highly publicize interesting solutions and contributions related to our conjecture about the distribution of a new, robust correlation and R Square coefficients. For those familiar with math language, our new correlation is an adjusted L1 version of the classical Spearman's rank correlation. By contrast, Spearman's is an L2 metric, and thus not so robust for large n, especially for data that lies in a bounded, compact space.
The framework behind our new metrics is at the frontier between data science, computational and applied mathematical statistics, computer science, algorithms and big data.
Interesting approaches and solutions will be published in Data Science Central, reaching out to 3 million analytic professionals. We are also looking for reverse sponsors: organizations, companies, or even individuals who partner with us. There is no cost: participants mentioning an official partner when submitting their solution, if winning, will have the amount of the award multiplied by 2. The difference is paid by us, on behalf of the partner. Reverse sponsors referred by great candidates will be featured when we release the final results later in October.
You can read about the contest, reverse sponsorship and our correlation at

Let me know if you are interested, or know people who might. Also, feel free to share this announcement
Best regards,
Vincent
