Managing investment funds with Kelly and Kalman

How much of our wealth should we invest if we come across a promising, but risky investment opportunity? What if such opportunities arise every day? How can we decide how attractive a given investment opportunity is? 
We will study this problem with the help of a simplified investment fund model. We can optimize passive fund management strategies with the Kelly criterion. For optimizing active management strategies, we will combine the Kelly criterion with the Kalman filter methodology.
