    Deep learning for trading and hedging in financial markets

    Deep learning has achieved remarkable results in many areas, from image classification, language translation to question answering. Deep neural network models have proved to be good at processing large amounts of data and capturing complex relationships embedded in the data. In this thesis, we use deep learning methods to solve trading and hedging problems in the financial markets. We show that our solutions, which consist of various deep neural network models, could achieve better accuracies and efficiencies than many conventional mathematical-based methods. We use Technical Analysis Neural Network (TANN) to process high-frequency tick data from the foreign exchange market. Various technical indicators are calculated from the market data and fed into the neural network model. The model generates a classification label, which indicates the future movement direction of the FX rate in the short term. Our solution can surpass many well-known machine learning algorithms on classification accuracies. Deep Hedging models the relationship between the underlying asset and the prices of option contracts. We upgrade the pipeline by removing the restriction on trading frequency. With different levels of risk tolerances, the modified deep hedging model can propose various hedging solutions. These solutions form the Efficient Hedging Frontier (EHF), where their associated risk levels and returns are directly observable. We also show that combining a Deep Hedging model with a prediction algorithm ultimately increases the hedging performances. Implied volatility is the critical parameter for evaluating many financial derivatives. We propose a novel PCA Variational Auto-Enocder model to encode three independent features of implied volatility surfaces from the European stock markets. This novel encoding brings various benefits to generating and extrapolating implied volatility surfaces. It also enables the transformation of implied volatility surfaces from a stock index to a single stock, significantly improving the efficiency of derivatives pricing

    Data ethics : building trust : how digital technologies can serve humanity

    Get PDF
    Data is the magic word of the 21st century. As oil in the 20th century and electricity in the 19th century: For citizens, data means support in daily life in almost all activities, from watch to laptop, from kitchen to car, from mobile phone to politics. For business and politics, data means power, dominance, winning the race. Data can be used for good and bad, for services and hacking, for medicine and arms race. How can we build trust in this complex and ambiguous data world? How can digital technologies serve humanity? The 45 articles in this book represent a broad range of ethical reflections and recommendations in eight sections: a) Values, Trust and Law, b) AI, Robots and Humans, c) Health and Neuroscience, d) Religions for Digital Justice, e) Farming, Business, Finance, f) Security, War, Peace, g) Data Governance, Geopolitics, h) Media, Education, Communication. The authors and institutions come from all continents. The book serves as reading material for teachers, students, policy makers, politicians, business, hospitals, NGOs and religious organisations alike. It is an invitation for dialogue, debate and building trust! The book is a continuation of the volume “Cyber Ethics 4.0” published in 2018 by the same editors

    Advances in Modelling of Rainfall Fields

    Rainfall is the main input for all hydrological models, such as rainfall–runoff models and the forecasting of landslides triggered by precipitation, with its comprehension being clearly essential for effective water resource management as well. The need to improve the modeling of rainfall fields constitutes a key aspect both for efficiently realizing early warning systems and for carrying out analyses of future scenarios related to occurrences and magnitudes for all induced phenomena. The aim of this Special Issue was hence to provide a collection of innovative contributions for rainfall modeling, focusing on hydrological scales and a context of climate changes. We believe that the contribution from the latest research outcomes presented in this Special Issue can shed novel insights on the comprehension of the hydrological cycle and all the phenomena that are a direct consequence of rainfall. Moreover, all these proposed papers can clearly constitute a valid base of knowledge for improving specific key aspects of rainfall modeling, mainly concerning climate change and how it induces modifications in properties such as magnitude, frequency, duration, and the spatial extension of different types of rainfall fields. The goal should also consider providing useful tools to practitioners for quantifying important design metrics in transient hydrological contexts (quantiles of assigned frequency, hazard functions, intensity–duration–frequency curves, etc.)
