A Multiple-Kernel Support Vector Regression Approach for Stock Market Price Forecasting

Huang, Chi-wei 05 August 2009 (has links)
Support vector regression has been applied to stock market forecasting problems. However, it is usually needed to tune manually the hyperparameters of the kernel functions. Multiple-kernel learning was developed to deal with this problem, by which the kernel matrix weights and Lagrange multipliers can be simultaneously derived through semidefinite programming. However, the amount of time and space required is very demanding. We develop a two-stage multiple-kernel learning algorithm by incorporating sequential minimal optimization and the gradient projection method. By this algorithm, advantages from different hyperparameter settings can be combined and overall system performance can be improved. Besides, the user need not specify the hyperparameter settings in advance, and trial-and-error for determining appropriate hyperparameter settings can then be avoided. Experimental results, obtained by running on datasets taken from Taiwan Capitalization Weighted Stock Index, show that our method performs better than other methods.

Artificial Intelligence Applications in Financial Markets Forecasting : A Systematic Mapping

Brandt, Jakob January 2017 (has links)
This bachelor thesis aims to give an overview of the last ten years research on financial market forecasting with Artificial Intelligence techniques. Reviews of this topic have been made earlier, but it can behard to get a sense to what degree this type of research have been made and to what extent specific topicshave been covered. To answer this and also what research type and how these topics have changed overtime, a systematic mapping is performed with backward snowballing as literature search method. Theresults show that various hybrids and Artificial Neural Networks applied to the stock market are the mostcommon combinations and most research is new attempts at trying to predict future market movementsand values.

Predikce výskytu skoků na denním trhu s elektřinou v České republice / Forecasting Jump Occurrence in Czech Day-Ahead Power Market

Hortová, Jana January 2016 (has links)
The very specific features of the spot prices, especially occurrence of severe jumps, create a spot price risk for retailers who purchase electricity at unregulated highly volatile prices but resell it to consumers at fixed price. Therefore, it is of high im- portance to forecast whether jump is likely to occur during the next hour. However, to the best of our knowledge, such research has not been devoted to the Czech power market yet. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to forecast the jump occurrence in the Czech day-ahead market. For this purpose we suggest four logit model spec- ifications, each containing various independent variables (for example, electricity demand, outside temperature, lagged price and various dummy variables) where the variable selection is supported by the previous literature and by the characteristic features of the spot prices. Within the in-sample period we compare the suggested models based on the values of pseudo-R squared and Bayesian information criterion. When evaluating the out-of sample performance of suggested models we apply jump prediction accuracy and confidence, but opposed to the previous literature we sug- gest a kind of sensitivity analysis which, to the best of our knowledge, has not be proposed by any other power research.
