The study examines how brokers' identity affects their trading strategies on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
A blindfolded LLM trading framework validates market signals without ticker memorization.
For a dataset of label-count pairs, an anonymized histogram is the multiset of counts. Anonymized histograms appear in various potentially sensitive contexts such as password-frequency lists, degree distribution in social networks, and estimation of symmetric properties of discrete distributions. Motivated by these app…
We analyze a proprietary dataset of trades by a single asset manager, comparing their price impact with that of the trades of the rest of the market. In the context of a linear propagator model we find no significant difference between the two, suggesting that both the magnitude and time dependence of impact are univer…

Differentially private GANs improve image privacy without significant quality loss.
Motion sensors such as accelerometers and gyroscopes measure the instant acceleration and rotation of a device, in three dimensions. Raw data streams from motion sensors embedded in portable and wearable devices may reveal private information about users without their awareness. For example, motion data might disclose …
WAFFLe anonymizes federated learning weights to protect data privacy and fairness.
The development of reinforced learning methods has extended application to many areas including algorithmic trading. In this paper trading on the stock exchange is interpreted into a game with a Markov property consisting of states, actions, and rewards. A system for trading the fixed volume of a financial instrument i…
SMOTE-DP enhances synthetic data privacy without sacrificing utility.
A framework for anonymized risk sharing without revealing identities or preferences.
Benchmark evaluates LLM trading agents by masking identifiers to prevent memory leaks.
Anonymization reduces economic signal extraction from financial texts.
Bank behaviour is important for pricing XVA because it links different counterparties and thus breaks the usual XVA pricing assumption of counterparty independence. Consider a typical case of a bank hedging a client trade via a CCP. On client default the hedge (effects) will be removed (rebalanced). On the other hand, …
The paper explores how to measure and optimize ad reach while maintaining user privacy.
Recommender systems are widely used to predict personalized preferences of goods or services using users' past activities, such as item ratings or purchase histories. If collections of such personal activities were made publicly available, they could be used to personalize a diverse range of services, including targete…
We confirm the square-root law of market impact on Apple Inc. using a large dataset.
Crowding is most likely an important factor in the deterioration of strategy performance, the increase of trading costs and the development of systemic risk. We study the imprints of \emph{crowding} on both anonymous market data and a large database of metaorders from institutional investors in the U.S. equity market. …
We study a variant of the stochastic -armed bandit problem, which we call "bandits with delayed, aggregated anonymous feedback". In this problem, when the player pulls an arm, a reward is generated, however it is not immediately observed. Instead, at the end of each round the player observes only the sum of a number…
Graph matching in noisy environments with Markovian errors.
We introduce a multivariate Hawkes process that accounts for the dynamics of market prices through the impact of market order arrivals at microstructural level. Our model is a point process mainly characterized by 4 kernels associated with respectively the trade arrival self-excitation, the price changes mean reversion…
Develops an LLM-based agent for superior cryptocurrency trading.
Study finds price impact follows a 'double' square-root law, suggesting mechanical origin.
The social media revolution has produced a plethora of web services to which users can easily upload and share multimedia documents. Despite the popularity and convenience of such services, the sharing of such inherently personal data, including speech data, raises obvious security and privacy concerns. In particular, …
Adaptive MAB algorithms handle composite, anonymous feedback without reward interval knowledge.
Text-based analysis methods allow to reveal privacy relevant author attributes such as gender, age and identify of the text's author. Such methods can compromise the privacy of an anonymous author even when the author tries to remove privacy sensitive content. In this paper, we propose an automatic method, called Adver…
Preserving the privacy of individuals by protecting their sensitive attributes is an important consideration during microdata release. However, it is equally important to preserve the quality or utility of the data for at least some targeted workloads. We propose a novel framework for privacy preservation based on the …
We explore a novel setting of the Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) problem inspired from real world applications which we call bandits with "stochastic delayed composite anonymous feedback (SDCAF)". In SDCAF, the rewards on pulling arms are stochastic with respect to time but spread over a fixed number of time steps in the fut…
TIPRDC anonymizes data features to protect privacy while retaining useful information.
This work synthesizes realistic data from neural excitation patterns to anonymize private data.
The paper proposes a privacy-preserving algorithm for decentralized learning using public-key cryptography.
The paper analyzes how clustering sensitive data can improve model generalization without revealing individual information.
Statistical methods protecting sensitive information or the identity of the data owner have become critical to ensure privacy of individuals as well as of organizations. This paper investigates anonymization methods based on representation learning and deep neural networks, and motivated by novel information theoretica…
In this paper, we investigate the effect of machine learning based anonymization on anomalous subgroup preservation. In particular, we train a binary classifier to discover the most anomalous subgroup in a dataset by maximizing the bias between the group's predicted odds ratio from the model and observed odds ratio fro…
Cluster-DP improves differential privacy in randomized experiments by clustering data.
Sensitive statistics are often collected across sets of users, with repeated collection of reports done over time. For example, trends in users' private preferences or software usage may be monitored via such reports. We study the collection of such statistics in the local differential privacy (LDP) model, and describe…
Study non-oblivious adversarial bandits with delayed feedback and propose algorithms with improved regret bounds.
The task of representing entire graphs has seen a surge of prominent results, mainly due to learning convolutional neural networks (CNNs) on graph-structured data. While CNNs demonstrate state-of-the-art performance in graph classification task, such methods are supervised and therefore steer away from the original pro…
This study addresses an issue of co-adaptation between a feature extractor and a classifier in a neural network. A naive joint optimization of a feature extractor and a classifier often brings situations in which an excessively complex feature distribution adapted to a very specific classifier degrades the test perform…
Study examines cryptocurrency behavior during and after the pandemic.
Green bond leaks impact equity markets, altering investor reactions.
Private cancer prediction model trained on federated genomic data.
CAWs learn temporal network dynamics without node identities or edge attributes.
Efficient sequential matching of supply and demand is a problem of interest in many online to offline services. For instance, Uber, Lyft, Grab for matching taxis to customers; Ubereats, Deliveroo, FoodPanda etc for matching restaurants to customers. In these online to offline service problems, individuals who are respo…
Data diversity is critical to success when training deep learning models. Medical imaging data sets are often imbalanced as pathologic findings are generally rare, which introduces significant challenges when training deep learning models. In this work, we propose a method to generate synthetic abnormal MRI images with…

LLMs outperform human analysts in predicting earnings direction.
It is not until recently that graph neural networks (GNNs) are adopted to perform graph representation learning, among which, those based on the aggregation of features within the neighborhood of a node achieved great success. However, despite such achievements, GNNs illustrate defects in identifying some common struct…
