Research quantifies financial exclusion risks in UK, focusing on cash infrastructure and socio-economic factors.
Deep semi-supervised anomaly detection improves fraud detection in financial markets.
Negative screening is one method to avoid interactions with inappropriate entities. For example, financial institutions keep investment exclusion lists of inappropriate firms that have environmental, social, and government (ESG) problems. They create their investment exclusion lists by gathering information from variou…
New framework models stock relationships and investor expectations for better financial market predictions.
Decision analytics commonly focuses on the text mining of financial news sources in order to provide managerial decision support and to predict stock market movements. Existing predictive frameworks almost exclusively apply traditional machine learning methods, whereas recent research indicates that traditional machine…
We derive valuations of a portfolio of financial instruments from a securities lending perspective, under different assumptions, and show a weighting scheme that converges to the true valuation. We illustrate conditions under which our alternative weighting scheme converges faster to the true valuation when compared to…
Many practical applications such as gene expression analysis, multi-task learning, image recognition, signal processing, and medical data analysis pursue a sparse solution for the feature selection purpose and particularly favor the nonzeros \emph{evenly} distributed in different groups. The exclusive sparsity norm has…
Introduces joint exclusivity (JE), a new form of negative dependence.
We consider the symmetric exclusion process on suitable random grids that approximate a compact Riemannian manifold. We prove that a class of random walks on these random grids converge to Brownian motion on the manifold. We then consider the empirical density field of the symmetric exclusion process and prove that it …
An informed broker optimizes trading strategies in a market influenced by many traders.
In the last years efforts in econophysics have been shifted to study how network theory can facilitate understanding of complex financial markets. Main part of these efforts is the study of correlation-based hierarchical networks. This is somewhat surprising as the underlying assumptions of research looking at financia…
Extends conformal prediction to contrastive learning for better coverage of positive samples.
Paper improves volatility forecasting for new issues and spin-offs.
Examines AI regulation in finance, highlighting risks and gaps in current laws.
Exclusive Group Lasso improves feature selection in correlated biological data.
Addressing the ongoing examination of high-frequency trading practices in financial markets, we report the results of an extensive empirical study estimating the maximum possible profitability of the most aggressive such practices, and arrive at figures that are surprisingly modest. By "aggressive" we mean any trading …
Exclusive Lasso improves survival prediction in cancer datasets.
We analyze and quantify, in a financial market with parameter uncertainty and for a Constant Relative Risk Aversion investor, the utility effects of two different boundedly rational (i.e., sub-optimal) investment strategies (namely, myopic and unconditional strategies) and compare them between each other and with the u…
Predicts asset return distributions using LSTM and quantile regression.
A financial market comprising of a certain number of distinct companies is considered, and the following statement is proved: either a specific agent will surely beat the whole market unconditionally in the long run, or (and this "or" is not exclusive) all the capital of the market will accumulate in one company. Thus,…
New method selects variables in groups with few nonzeros, improving support recovery.
The paper proposes a model to learn disentangled representations using mutual information.
Deep learning reveals lagged correlations in stock markets, showing accuracy decreases with shorter prediction horizons.
ETM identifies field-specific keywords in text classification.
An exclusion particle model is considered as a highly simplified model of a limit order market. Its price behavior reproduces the well known crossover from over-diffusion (Hurst exponent H>1/2) to diffusion (H=1/2) when the time horizon is increased, provided that orders are allowed to be canceled. For early times a ma…
Spaces of polynomials are shown to be Euclidean balls.
Quantum algorithm solves financial option pricing using Hamiltonian simulation.
New study analyzes security of neural network data reconstruction attacks.
Study reconstructs Faber-Schauder coefficients from antiderivative observations.
An ongoing challenge in the analysis of document collections is how to summarize content in terms of a set of inferred themes that can be interpreted substantively in terms of topics. The current practice of parametrizing the themes in terms of most frequent words limits interpretability by ignoring the differential us…
Unsupervised learning is becoming more and more important recently. As one of its key components, the autoencoder (AE) aims to learn a latent feature representation of data which is more robust and discriminative. However, most AE based methods only focus on the reconstruction within the encoder-decoder phase, which ig…
Anti-money laundering (AML) regulations play a critical role in safeguarding financial systems, but bear high costs for institutions and drive financial exclusion for those on the socioeconomic and international margins. The advent of cryptocurrency has introduced an intriguing paradox: pseudonymity allows criminals to…
Study uses synthetic data to estimate credit risk for underbanked consumers in Istanbul.
In complex systems like financial market, risk tolerance of individuals is crucial for system resilience.The single-security price limit, designed as risk tolerance to protect investors by avoiding sharp price fluctuation, is blamed for feeding market panic in times of crash.The relationship between the critical market…

Study risk-constrained Kelly optimization for mutually exclusive outcomes, proving support invariance and developing a structured algorithm.
Study of SO(3)-irreducible geometry in complex 5D and ternary Pauli exclusion principle.
In this paper we consider the problem of semi-supervised learning with deep Convolutional Neural Networks (ConvNets). Semi-supervised learning is motivated on the observation that unlabeled data is cheap and can be used to improve the accuracy of classifiers. In this paper we propose an unsupervised regularization term…
Meta-learning improved by using information theory to prioritize data-driven adaptation.
The availability of large microarray data has led to a growing interest in biclustering methods in the past decade. Several algorithms have been proposed to identify subsets of genes and conditions according to different similarity measures and under varying constraints. In this paper we focus on the exclusive row bicl…
Hexagonal norm double bubble problem solved with minimal configurations.
The exclusive or (xor) function is one of the simplest examples that illustrate why nonlinear feedforward networks are superior to linear regression for machine learning applications. We review the xor representation and approximation problems and discuss their solutions in terms of probabilistic logic and associative …
Valid causal inference with invalid instruments using majority or modal valid relationships.
Continuing the quest for exclusive Racah matrices, which are needed for evaluation of colored arborescent-knot polynomials in Chern-Simons theory, we suggest to extract them from a new kind of a double-evolution -- that of the antiparallel double-braids, which is a simple two-parametric family of two-bridge knots, gene…
Semi-supervised learning is sought for leveraging the unlabelled data when labelled data is difficult or expensive to acquire. Deep generative models (e.g., Variational Autoencoder (VAE)) and semisupervised Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have recently shown promising performance in semi-supervised classificatio…
