We introduce nonlinear higher-order label spreading for semi-supervised learning.

problem Efficient semi-supervised learning on graphs with complex label spreading.
method We add nonlinearity to label spreading through higher-order graph structures, proving convergence and demonstrating efficiency on various datasets.
result Our nonlinear higher-order label spreading algorithm converges to the global solution and performs favorably compared to classical methods.

Chagas disease is a neglected disease, and information about its geographical spread is very scarse. We analyze here mobility and calling patterns in order to identify potential risk zones for the disease, by using public health information and mobile phone records. Geolocalized call records are rich in social and mobi…

Enhances inference of spreading processes using neural-network priors.

problem Estimating initial states of graph processes from partial observations.
method Bayesian framework with single-layer perceptron neural network for initial states; hybrid BP-AMP algorithm.
result Model exhibits first-order phase transitions, creating a statistical-to-computational gap.

Microstructure of market dynamics is studied through analysis of tick price data. Linear trend is introduced as a tool for such analysis. Trend arbitrage inequality is developed and tested. The inequality sets limiting relationship between trend, bid-ask spread, market reaction and average update frequency of price inf…

The paper uses daily bond price data to estimate corporate default spreads, improving credit risk assessment.

problem Outdated credit risk information from quarterly accounting items.
method Adapting classic yield curve estimation methods to corporate bonds, using Bayesian estimation.
result High-frequency credit risk proxy via corporate default spreads improves model stability and prediction uncertainty.

Modeling social network activity through user and topic interaction.

problem Understanding complex dynamics of opinion formation in social networks.
method Mixture of Interacting Cascades (MIC) model of marked multidimensional Hawkes processes.
result MIC achieves superior performance in modeling information cascade spread.

While market is a social field where information flows over the interacting agents, there have been not so many methods to observe the spreading information in the prices comprising the market. By incorporating the entropy transfer in information theory in its relation to the Granger causality, the paper proposes a tre…

Efficient algorithm learns Independent Cascade model from partial network observations.

problem Learning accurate spreading models from limited network data.
method Scalable dynamic message-passing approach for parameter learning.
result Improved prediction of marginal probabilities compared to original model.

The paper develops Hawkes-based models for LOB and applies them to European, spread, and basket option pricing.

problem Developing accurate models for pricing options in the context of limit order books (LOB).
method Introduces multivariate Hawkes processes and their limit theorems, applies to European, spread, and basket options.
result Hawkes-based models provide more market forecast information than classical models.

New findings show some designs can't be robustly recovered in linear regression.

problem Robust linear regression with adversarial corruption.
method Investigated well-spreadness of design matrices for robust recovery.
result Certified well-spreadness of random matrices efficiently, but hardness for small observations.

Study on liquidity and market efficiency in auction games with imperfect information.

problem Generating liquidity in illiquid auction markets with imperfect information.
method Characterized Nash equilibria in a two-player game with imperfect information, linking market spreads to signal strength.
result Without incentives, the market is inefficient and does not lead to trades. Quadratic fees indexed on half spread can generate liquidity.

Statistical arbitrage strategies, such as pairs trading and its generalizations, rely on the construction of mean-reverting spreads enjoying a certain degree of predictability. Gaussian linear state-space processes have recently been proposed as a model for such spreads under the assumption that the observed process is…

Privacy subsidy found in market trading with noisy direction signals.

problem Analyzing welfare and bid-ask spread in a market with privacy mechanisms.
method Closed-form derivation of bid-ask spread and welfare under flip-noise direction observation.
result Privacy subsidy of μηΔμηΔ from liquidity pool to traders, robust across models.

In this paper, the optimal pricing strategy in Avellande-Stoikov's for a monopolistic dealer is extended to a general situation where multiple dealers are present in a competitive market. The dealers' trading intensities, their optimal bid and ask prices and therefore their spreads are derived when the dealers are info…

This study examines lead-lag relationships in Chinese futures markets using high-frequency data.

problem Understanding high-frequency trading dynamics and information flow in futures markets.
method High-frequency tick-by-tick data analysis of lead-lag relationships between different maturity futures contracts.
result The near-month futures lead longer-dated contracts by one tick, with a negative feedback effect on the leading asset.

Paper models limit order book with informed traders and market makers.

problem Modeling the limit order book with heterogeneous market participants.
method Agent-based model with four types of participants: informed traders, noise traders, informed market makers, and noise market makers. Based on Glosten-Milgrom and Huang-Rosenbaum-Saliba approaches.
result Derived the static limit order book characteristics and compared them with existing models.

Meta-learning performance is affected by how task diversity is allocated, not just overall variability.

problem Meta-learning performance degrades when task diversity is unevenly distributed.
method Decomposed task-specific regression effects into structurally informative and orthogonal components.
result Meta-learning prediction degrades when a larger fraction of task variability is orthogonal and non-informative.

Many commonly used liquidity measures are based on snapshots of the state of the limit order book (LOB) and can thus only provide information about instantaneous liquidity, and not regarding the local liquidity regime. However, trading in the LOB is characterised by many intra-day liquidity shocks, where the LOB genera…

We establish that, over certain ground fields, the set of osculating tangents of Cayley's ruled cubic surface gives rise to a (maximal partial) spread which is also a dual (maximal partial) spread. It is precisely the Betten-Walker spreads that allow for this construction. Every infinite Betten-Walker spread is not an …

The statistical properties of the bid-ask spread of a frequently traded Chinese stock listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange are investigated using the limit-order book data. Three different definitions of spread are considered based on the time right before transactions, the time whenever the highest buying price or th…

We study the behavior of simple models for financial markets with widely spread frequency either in the trading activity of agents or in the occurrence of basic events. The generic picture of a phase transition between information efficient and inefficient markets still persists even when agents trade on widely spread …
