Deep Curve-dependent PDEs for affine rough volatility

Abstract

We introduce a new deep-learning based algorithm to evaluate options in affine rough stochastic volatility models. Viewing the pricing function as the solution to a curve-dependent PDE (CPDE), depending on forward curves rather than the whole path of the process, for which we develop a numerical scheme based on deep learning techniques. Numerical simulations suggest that the latter is a promising alternative to classical Monte Carlo simulations.
