Yihan Xia, Taotao Wang
AI-assisted research compresses ideation, implementation, evaluation, and manuscript writing into a single interactive loop. This compression is useful, but it also creates a publi…
Agentic Trading: When LLM Agents Meet Financial Markets
Yihan Xia, Panpan You, Taotao Wang +4
A growing body of work explores how Large Language Models (LLMs) can be embedded in trading systems as agents that perceive market information, retrieve context, reason about decis…
