scholarly journals Modeling Volatility in the Stock Market for Accuracy in Forecasting

In this paper, the best GARCH type model was selected and compared with the machine learning models, such as Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network (MLP-NN) models in modeling and forecasting monthly return of the financial market data. The objective of the study was to compare the best model in forecasting New York and Shanghai Stock Composite indices, for the period 01.01.1996 to 01.09.2019. The GJR-GARCH model outperformed other GARCH type models based on the Schwarz Bayesian Information Criterion (SSBIC). The Monte Carlo simulation carried at 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000 and 5000 finite sample (window) sizes to test the consistency of the GJR-GARCH model parameters has shown perfect results between true and the simulated coefficients. Finally, the GJR-GARCH model was compared with the MLPNN and ELM machine learning models. The monthly return forecasting of two years (24 months) was done starting from period 01.09.2019 to 01.09.2021. The study found the MLP-NN model as the best in the modeling and forecasting monthly returns of the two composite stock indices for the two years by considering the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE).The study recommends that further research should focus on the formulation of the hybrid model that combines machine learning and the GJR-GARCH models in forecasting stock market volatility.

As stock trading became a popular topic on Twitter, many researchers have proposed different approaches to make predictions on it, relying on the emotions found in messages. However, detailed studies require a reasonably sized corpus with emotions properly annotated. In this work, we introduce a corpus of tweets in Brazilian Portuguese annotated with emotions. Comprising 4,277 tweets, this is, to the best of our knowledge, the largest annotated corpus available in the stock market domain for this language. Amongst its possible uses, the corpus lends itself to the application of machine learning models for automatic emotion identification, as well as to the study of correlations between emotions and stock price movements.

Training accurate and robust machine learning models requires a large amount of data that is usually scattered across data-silos. Sharing or centralizing the data of different healthcare institutions is, however, unfeasible or prohibitively difficult due to privacy regulations. In this work, we address this problem by using a novel privacy-preserving federated learning-based approach, PriCell, for complex machine learning models such as convolutional neural networks. PriCell relies on multiparty homomorphic encryption and enables the collaborative training of encrypted neural networks with multiple healthcare institutions. We preserve the confidentiality of each institutions' input data, of any intermediate values, and of the trained model parameters. We efficiently replicate the training of a published state-of-the-art convolutional neural network architecture in a decentralized and privacy-preserving manner. Our solution achieves an accuracy comparable to the one obtained with the centralized solution, with an improvement of at least one-order-of-magnitude in execution time with respect to prior secure solutions. Our work guarantees patient privacy and ensures data utility for efficient multi-center studies involving complex healthcare data.

AbstractThe current outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has recently been declared as a pandemic and spread over 200 countries and territories. Forecasting the long-term trend of the COVID-19 epidemic can help health authorities determine the transmission characteristics of the virus and take appropriate prevention and control strategies beforehand. Previous studies that solely applied traditional epidemic models or machine learning models were subject to underfitting or overfitting problems. We propose a new model named Dynamic-Susceptible-Exposed-Infective-Quarantined (D-SEIQ), by making appropriate modifications of the Susceptible-Exposed-Infective-Recovered (SEIR) model and integrating machine learning based parameter optimization under epidemiological rational constraints. We used the model to predict the long-term reported cumulative numbers of COVID-19 cases in China from January 27, 2020. We evaluated our model on officially reported confirmed cases from three different regions in China, and the results proved the effectiveness of our model in terms of simulating and predicting the trend of the COVID-19 outbreak. In China-Excluding-Hubei area within 7 days after the first public report, our model successfully and accurately predicted the long trend up to 40 days and the exact date of the outbreak peak. The predicted cumulative number (12,506) by March 10, 2020, was only 3·8% different from the actual number (13,005). The parameters obtained by our model proved the effectiveness of prevention and intervention strategies on epidemic control in China. The prediction results for five other countries suggested the external validity of our model. The integrated approach of epidemic and machine learning models could accurately forecast the long-term trend of the COVID-19 outbreak. The model parameters also provided insights into the analysis of COVID-19 transmission and the effectiveness of interventions in China.

Imagination Sampling is the usage of a person as an oracle for generating or improving machine learning models. Previous work demonstrated a general system for using Imagination Sampling for obtaining multibox models. Here, the possibility of importing such models as the starting point for further automatic enhancement is explored.
