Download or read book Evaluating Predictors Within a Present value Framework written by Jhe Yun and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I impose functional-form restrictions on the time-series processes of expected returns and expected dividend growth rates to better estimate them in a small sample. The approach helps to aggregate information contained in the entire history of prices, dividend growth, and additional predictors without parameter proliferation. I find that both expected returns and expected dividend growth rates are substantially time-varying, positively correlated with each other, and covary with several macroeconomic variables. The estimated expectations of returns and dividend growth rates are strong predictors of realized returns and dividend growth rates, respectively, both in-sample and out-of-sample. Book-to-Market Ratio, Stock Variance, Consumption-Wealth-Income Ratio, and BAA-rated Corporate Bond Yield significantly improve the return and dividend forecasts of my present-value model.

Download or read book Predictive regressions a present value approach written by Jules H. van Binsbergen and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose a latent variables approach within a present-value model to estimate the expected returns and expected dividend growth rates of the aggregate stock market. This approach aggregates information contained in the history of price-dividend ratios and dividend growth rates to predict future returns and dividend growth rates. We find that returns and dividend growth rates are predictable with R-squared values ranging from 8.2% to 8.9% for returns and 13.9% to 31.6% for dividend growth rates. Both expected returns and expected dividend growth rates have a persistent component, but expected returns are more persistent than expected dividend growth rates.

This book was released on with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many researchers have focused on the diagnosis of heart disease, yet the accuracy of the diagnosis results is low. To address this issue, an IoT framework is proposed to evaluate heart disease more accurately using a Modified Deep Convolutional Neural Network (MDCNN). The smartwatch and heart monitor device that is attached to the patient monitors the blood pressure and electrocardiogram (ECG). The MDCNN is utilized for classifying the received sensor data into normal and abnormal.

Download or read book Grammar Based Feature Generation for Time Series Prediction written by Anthony Mihirana De Silva and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-14 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a novel approach for time-series prediction using machine learning techniques with automatic feature generation. Application of machine learning techniques to predict time-series continues to attract considerable attention due to the difficulty of the prediction problems compounded by the non-linear and non-stationary nature of the real world time-series. The performance of machine learning techniques, among other things, depends on suitable engineering of features. This book proposes a systematic way for generating suitable features using context-free grammar. A number of feature selection criteria are investigated and a hybrid feature generation and selection algorithm using grammatical evolution is proposed. The book contains graphical illustrations to explain the feature generation process. The proposed approaches are demonstrated by predicting the closing price of major stock market indices, peak electricity load and net hourly foreign exchange client trade volume. The proposed method can be applied to a wide range of machine learning architectures and applications to represent complex feature dependencies explicitly when machine learning cannot achieve this by itself. Industrial applications can use the proposed technique to improve their predictions.
