Time-varying neural network for stock return prediction

Steven Y. K. Wong, Jennifer Chan, Lamiae Azizi +1

We consider the problem of neural network training in a time-varying context. Machine learning algorithms have excelled in problems that do not change over time. However, problems…

Semi-metric portfolio optimization: a new algorithm reducing simultaneous asset shocks

Nick James, Max Menzies, Jennifer Chan

This paper proposes a new method for financial portfolio optimization based on reducing simultaneous asset shocks across a collection of assets. This may be understood as an altern…

Novel semi-metrics for multivariate change point analysis and anomaly detection

Nick James, Max Menzies, Lamiae Azizi +1

This paper proposes a new method for determining similarity and anomalies between time series, most practically effective in large collections of (likely related) time series, by m…

Maximum leave-one-out likelihood estimation for location parameter of unbounded densities

Thanakorn Nitithumbundit, Jennifer S. K. Chan

Maximum likelihood estimation of a location parameter fails when the density have unbounded mode. An alternative approach is considered by leaving out a data point to avoid the unb…

An ECM algorithm for Skewed Multivariate Variance Gamma Distribution in Normal Mean-Variance Representation

Thanakorn Nitithumbundit, Jennifer S. K. Chan

Normal mean-variance mixture distributions are widely applied to simplify a model's implementation and improve their computational efficiency under the Maximum Likelihood (ML) appr…
