### <summary>
### Provides an implementation of Black-Litterman portfolio optimization. The model adjusts equilibrium market
### returns by incorporating views from multiple alpha models and therefore to get the optimal risky portfolio
### reflecting those views. If insights of all alpha models have None magnitude or there are linearly dependent
### vectors in link matrix of views, the expected return would be the implied excess equilibrium return.
### The interval of weights in optimization method can be changed based on the long-short algorithm.
### The default model uses the 0.0025 as weight-on-views scalar parameter tau and
### MaximumSharpeRatioPortfolioOptimizer that accepts a 63-row matrix of 1-day returns.
