    Mean-variance portfolio optimization model, introduced by Markowitz, provides a fundamental answer to the problem of portfolio management. This model seeks an efficient frontier with the best trade-offs between two conflicting objectives of maximizing return and minimizing risk. The problem of determining an efficient frontier is known to be NP-hard. Due to the complexity of the problem, genetic algorithms have been widely employed by a growing number of researchers to solve this problem. In this study, a literature review of genetic algorithms implementations on mean-variance portfolio optimization is examined from the recent published literature. Main specifications of the problems studied and the specifications of suggested genetic algorithms have been summarized

    학위논문 (박사)-- 서울대학교 대학원 : 전기·컴퓨터공학부, 2015. 8. 문병로.This thesis presents evolutionary algorithms incorporated with effective search space reduction for financial optimization problems. Typical evolutionary algorithms try to find optimal solutions in the original, or unrestricted search space. However, they can be unsuccessful if the optimal solutions are too complex to be discovered from scratch. This can be relieved by restricting the forms of meaningful solutions or providing the initial population with some promising solutions. To this end, we propose three evolution approaches including modular, grammatical, and seeded evolutions for financial optimization problems. We also adopt local optimizations for fine-tuning the solutions, resulting in hybrid evolutionary algorithms. First, the thesis proposes a modular evolution. In the modular evolution, the possible forms of solutions are statically restricted to certain combinations of module solutions, which reflect more domain knowledge. To preserve the module solutions, we devise modular genetic operators which work on modular search space. The modular genetic operators and statically defined modules help genetic programming focus on highly promising search space. Second, the thesis introduces a grammatical evolution. We restrict the possible forms of solutions in genetic programming by a context-free grammar. In the grammatical evolution, genetic programming works on more extended search space than modular one. Grammatically typed genetic operators are introduced for the grammatical evolution. Compared with the modular evolution, grammatical evolution requires less domain knowledge. Finally, the thesis presents a seeded evolution. Our seeded evolution provides the initial population with partially optimized solutions. The set of genes for the partial optimization is selected in terms of encoding complexity. The partially optimized solutions help genetic algorithm find more promising solutions efficiently. Since they are not too excessively optimized, genetic algorithm is still able to search better solutions. Extensive empirical results are provided using three real-world financial optimization problems: attractive technical pattern discovery, extended attractive technical pattern discovery, and large-scale stock selection. They show that our search space reductions are fairly effective for the problems. By combining the search space reductions with systematic evolutionary algorithm frameworks, we show that evolutionary algorithms can be exploited for realistic profitable trading.1.

    El conocimiento es la base para lograr ventajas competitivas sostenibles en las empresas y naciones; es fundamental para mejorar las condiciones de vida de las personas y para el desarrollo de una sociedad incluyente. En el pasado III Congreso Internacional, VI Coloquio Internacional y XI Nacional de Investigación en Ciencias Económico Administrativas, llevado a cabo el 16 y 17 de junio de 2016, en las instalaciones de la Facultad de Contaduría y Administración de la Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México, se presentaron trabajos que expusieron ideas y posturas sobre el conocimiento y su papel en el desarrollo incluyente y sostenible. El objetivo de este encuentro fue promover el intercambio de experiencias de investigación científica entre académicos y estudiantes de doctorado, para generar avance en los estudios económico administrativos a nivel nacional e internacional. Se enviaron 61 trabajos que fueron revisados por pares ciegos. Con ello, esta obra se conforma de 42 trabajos que cubrieron los requisitos de calidad para integrar el presente libro electrónico en cinco capítulos a saber: mercado de trabajo y educación (7), macroeconomía aplicada y economía regional (3), economía financiera e internacional (1), administración de las organizaciones (18) y competitividad e intangibles (12). Los autores de estos trabajos esperamos que con esta obra, pueda aportarse conocimiento que apoye en el desarrollo de una sociedad más justa, incluyente y sostenible.Facultad de Contaduría y Administración, UAEMé
