This thesis consists of three applications of machine learning techniques to empirical asset pricing.
In the first part, which is co-authored work with Oksana Bashchenko, we develop a new method that detects jumps nonparametrically in financial time series ...
The conjugate heat transfer in mixtures of a fluid and single granular clusters is studied in this paper using a novel lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) programmed for parallel computation on the graphics processing unit (GPU). The LBM is validated for heat c ...
We introduce a family of neural quantum states for the simulation of strongly interacting systems in the presence of spatial periodicity. Our variational state is parametrized in terms of a permutationally invariant part described by the Deep Sets neural-n ...
In this thesis, we study the stochastic heat equation (SHE) on bounded domains and on the whole Euclidean space Rd. We confirm the intuition that as the bounded domain increases to the whole space, both solutions become arbitrarily close to one another ...
This thesis uses machine learning techniques and text data to investigate the relationships that arise between the Fed and financial markets, and their consequences for asset prices.The first chapter, entitled Market Expectations and the Impact of Unconv ...
The field of computational topology has developed many powerful tools to describe the shape of data, offering an alternative point of view from classical statistics. This results in a variety of complex structures that are not always directly amenable for ...
The present invention is related to a method of volumetric manufacturing a three-dimensional object or article by illuminating a non-transparent and/or absorptive photo-sensitive material with light patterns from multiple angles, comprising the steps of ca ...
The use of model-based numerical simulations of wave propagation in rooms for engineering applications requires that acoustic conditions for multiple parameters are evaluated iteratively, which is computationally expensive. We present a reduced basis metho ...
We present a general framework for portfolio risk management in discrete time, based on a replicating martingale. This martingale is learned from a finite sample in a supervised setting. Our method learns the features necessary for an effective low-dimensi ...
This article derives a closed-form pricing formula for European exchange options under a non-Gaussianframework for the underlying assets, intending to resolve mispricing associated with a geometric Brownianmotion. The dynamics of each of the two correlated ...
We study the asymptotic stability of a two-dimensional mean-field equation, which takes the form of a nonlocal transport equation and generalizes the time-elapsed neuron network model by the inclusion of a leaky memory variable. This additional variable ca ...
