Book FINANCIAL MODELING USING BIO INSPIRED ALGORITHMS

Download or read book FINANCIAL MODELING USING BIO INSPIRED ALGORITHMS written by Trilok Nath Pandey and published by Department of Political Science and Public Administration. This book was released on 2022-08-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: newlineThe basis for this research originally stemmed from my passion for developing better and efficient methods to predict the time series financial data. As the world moves further into globalization and in this digital age, generating vast amounts of financial data and born digital content, there will be a greater need to access accurately the financial information about a country, so that it will help in economic growth of that country. Previously it is very difficult to get the parameters and technical indicators that affects the economy of a country. In most of the research works the researchers have used technical indicators as the parameters to predict the stock index and exchange rate of any country. These data are biased so they affect the prediction performance. It has been observed from the analysis of global market that the exchange rate and stock index of any country depends on the major stock indices and exchange rates of developed countries. Therefore, we have designed datasets by considering major stock indices of the world and exchange rates of developed G-7 countries to predict the future values of stock index and exchange rate of another country. In this research work, we have experimentally concluded that we can use the major stock indices of the world and exchange rates of developed countries as predictors. newlineMoreover, from the deep analysis, it has been observed that radial basis function neural networks are capable of universal approximation and are performing better than the other traditional prediction models for predicting the financial data. However, in many cases/instance, it is difficult to obtained the optimal parameters for the radial basis function neural network. Therefore, we have concentrated on designing and improving the efficiency of radial basis function neural networks by using bio-inspired algorithms. In this globalization era the economy of most of the country depends on the financial stability of other country. The prediction of financial data can be done more accurately if we could use better algorithms for prediction purpose. Researchers have suggested that neural networks based algorithms are performing better than traditional statistical algorithms and all most all the researchers are agreed that radial basis function network can be used as a universal approximator. Therefore, in our research work we have used radial basis function neural network as our prediction algorithm and then, we have improved its performance by fine tuning the parameters of the radial basis function neural network by using bio-inspired algorithm. One of the most popular bio-inspired algorithm is particle newlinevii newlineswarm optimization algorithm. It is widely used for solving optimization problems due to its simplicity and less number of parameters. Hence, we have considered canonical particle swarm optimization algorithm to fine tune the parameters of radial basis function neural network. From the experimental results we have observed that the performance of particle swarm optimized radial basis function neural network is performing better than the traditional radial basis function neural network algorithm. However, in this approach we have selected the particles randomly and the initial weights are updated by using the random number generator function. Further, we have analyzed that chaotic functions have better statistical and dynamical behavior than the random number generator function, which basically follows the normal distribution. Therefore, to improve the performance of the above model we have considered chaotic function instead of random number generator function to fine tune the inertia weights. Finally, based on the experimental results, we have compared our proposed model with other models. We have applied our proposed model to the three different areas in financial sector such as stock index prediction.

Book Bio inspired Algorithms for Data Streaming and Visualization  Big Data Management  and Fog Computing

Download or read book Bio inspired Algorithms for Data Streaming and Visualization Big Data Management and Fog Computing written by Simon James Fong and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide some insights into recently developed bio-inspired algorithms within recent emerging trends of fog computing, sentiment analysis, and data streaming as well as to provide a more comprehensive approach to the big data management from pre-processing to analytics to visualization phases. The subject area of this book is within the realm of computer science, notably algorithms (meta-heuristic and, more particularly, bio-inspired algorithms). Although application domains of these new algorithms may be mentioned, the scope of this book is not on the application of algorithms to specific or general domains but to provide an update on recent research trends for bio-inspired algorithms within a specific application domain or emerging area. These areas include data streaming, fog computing, and phases of big data management. One of the reasons for writing this book is that the bio-inspired approach does not receive much attention but shows considerable promise and diversity in terms of approach of many issues in big data and streaming. Some novel approaches of this book are the use of these algorithms to all phases of data management (not just a particular phase such as data mining or business intelligence as many books focus on); effective demonstration of the effectiveness of a selected algorithm within a chapter against comparative algorithms using the experimental method. Another novel approach is a brief overview and evaluation of traditional algorithms, both sequential and parallel, for use in data mining, in order to provide an overview of existing algorithms in use. This overview complements a further chapter on bio-inspired algorithms for data mining to enable readers to make a more suitable choice of algorithm for data mining within a particular context. In all chapters, references for further reading are provided, and in selected chapters, the author also include ideas for future research.

Book excerpt: Throughout the industry, financial institutions seek to eliminate cumbersome authentication methods, such as PINs, passwords, and security questions, as these antiquated tactics prove increasingly weak. Thus, many organizations now aim to implement emerging technologies in an effort to validate identities with greater certainty. The near instantaneous nature of online banking, purchases, transactions, and payments puts tremendous pressure on banks to secure their operations and procedures. In order to reduce the risk of human error in financial domains, expert systems are seen to offer a great advantage in big data environments. Besides their efficiency in quantitative analysis such as profitability, banking management, and strategic financial planning, expert systems have successfully treated qualitative issues including financial analysis, investment advisories, and knowledge-based decision support systems. Due to the increase in financial applications’ size, complexity, and number of components, it is no longer practical to anticipate and model all possible interactions and data processing in these applications using the traditional data processing model. The emergence of new research areas is clear evidence of the rise of new demands and requirements of modern real-life applications to be more intelligent. This book provides an exhaustive review of the roles of expert systems within the financial sector, with particular reference to big data environments. In addition, it offers a collection of high-quality research that addresses broad challenges in both theoretical and application aspects of intelligent and expert systems in finance. The book serves to aid the continued efforts of the application of intelligent systems that respond to the problem of big data processing in a smart banking and financial environment.

Book Biologically Inspired Techniques in Many Criteria Decision Making

Download or read book Biologically Inspired Techniques in Many Criteria Decision Making written by Satchidananda Dehuri and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses many-criteria decision-making (MCDM), a process used to find a solution in an environment with several criteria. In many real-world problems, there are several different objectives that need to be taken into account. Solving these problems is a challenging task and requires careful consideration. In real applications, often simple and easy to understand methods are used; as a result, the solutions accepted by decision makers are not always optimal solutions. On the other hand, algorithms that would provide better outcomes are very time consuming. The greatest challenge facing researchers is how to create effective algorithms that will yield optimal solutions with low time complexity. Accordingly, many current research efforts are focused on the implementation of biologically inspired algorithms (BIAs), which are well suited to solving uni-objective problems. This book introduces readers to state-of-the-art developments in biologically inspired techniques and their applications, with a major emphasis on the MCDM process. To do so, it presents a wide range of contributions on e.g. BIAs, MCDM, nature-inspired algorithms, multi-criteria optimization, machine learning and soft computing.
