Optimizes trade execution with reinforcement learning for limit orders.

problem Maximizing revenue in a limit order book with market and limit orders.
method Formulated as a dynamic allocation task, uses multivariate logistic-normal distributions for efficient training.
result Outperforms traditional strategies in simulated environments.

We present the discrete infinite logistic normal distribution (DILN), a Bayesian nonparametric prior for mixed membership models. DILN is a generalization of the hierarchical Dirichlet process (HDP) that models correlation structure between the weights of the atoms at the group level. We derive a representation of DILN…

This paper models how features influence event triggers in high-dimensional networks.

problem Estimating context-dependent networks in high-dimensional marked point processes.
method Leveraging compositional time series and regularization methods, the paper considers autoregressive multinomial and logistic-normal models for network estimation.
result The logistic-normal model leads to a convex negative log-likelihood objective and captures dependence across categories.

Fenrir efficiently estimates Bayesian MLN-DLMs for scalable inference.

problem Computational challenges in Bayesian MLN-DLMs for longitudinal count compositional data.
method Novel algorithm for MAP estimation and accurate posterior marginal approximation.
result Fenrir can be three orders of magnitude more efficient than Stan.

The logistic normal distribution has recently been adapted via the transformation of multivariate Gaus- sian variables to model the topical distribution of documents in the presence of correlations among topics. In this paper, we propose a probit normal alternative approach to modelling correlated topical structures. O…

A folded type model is developed for analyzing compositional data. The proposed model involves an extension of the αα-transformation for compositional data and provides a new and flexible class of distributions for modeling data defined on the simplex sample space. Despite its rather seemingly complex structure, emplo…

Asynchronous event sequences are the basis of many applications throughout different industries. In this work, we tackle the task of predicting the next event (given a history), and how this prediction changes with the passage of time. Since at some time points (e.g. predictions far into the future) we might not be abl…
