Evolution-Bootstrapped Simulation: Artificial or Human Intelligence: Which Came First?

Paul Alexander Bilokon

Humans have created artificial intelligence (AI), not the other way around. This statement is deceptively obvious. In this note, we decided to challenge this statement as a small,…

From Deep Filtering to Deep Econometrics

Robert Stok, Paul Bilokon

Calculating true volatility is an essential task for option pricing and risk management. However, it is made difficult by market microstructure noise. Particle filtering has been p…

Applying Deep Learning to Calibrate Stochastic Volatility Models

Abir Sridi, Paul Bilokon

Stochastic volatility models, where the volatility is a stochastic process, can capture most of the essential stylized facts of implied volatility surfaces and give more realistic…
