Log.u is a tool to integrate all your tracking applications in one dashboard to get a holistic understanding of your lifestyle. We participated in and won the hackathon organized by http://angelhack.com/. The proposal was to make a website that acted like a data hub that centralizes -biometric, academic, or any measurable- data related to the user. The system will perform data mining and find relationships between all these metrics, like for example, the relationship between how have you been eating/sleeping and your grades. Performed a basic implementation of the site in less than 15 hours, using the Pearson Correlation Coefficient https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearson_product-moment_correlation_coefficient.
