Deep Reinforcement learning is a branch of unsupervised learning in which an agent learns to act based on environment state in order to maximize its total reward. Deep reinforcement learning provides good opportunity to model the complexity of portfolio choice in high-dimensional and data-driven environment by leveraging the powerful representation of deep neural networks. In this paper, we build a portfolio management system using direct deep reinforcement learning to make optimal portfolio choice periodically among S&P500 underlying stocks by learning a good factor representation (as input). The result shows that an effective learning of market conditions and optimal portfolio allocations can significantly outperform the average market.

We have proposed to develop a global hybrid deep learning framework to predict the daily prices in the stock market. With representation learning, we derived an embedding called Stock2Vec, which gives us insight for the relationship among different stocks, while the temporal convolutional layers are used for automatically capturing effective temporal patterns both within and across series. Evaluated on S&P 500, our hybrid framework integrates both advantages and achieves better performance on the stock price prediction task than several popular benchmarked models.
Different investment strategies are adopted in short-term and long-term depending on the time scales, even though time scales are adhoc in nature. Empirical mode decomposition based Hurst exponent analysis and variance technique have been applied to identify the time scales for short-term and long-term investment from the decomposed intrinsic mode functions(IMF). Hurst exponent ($H$) is around 0.5 for the IMFs with time scales from few days to 3 months, and $Hgeq0.75$ for the IMFs with the time scales $geq5$ months. Short term time series [$X_{ST}(t)$] with time scales from few days to 3 months and $H~0.5$ and long term time series [$X_{LT}(t)$] with time scales $geq5$ and $Hgeq0.75$, which represent the dynamics of the market, are constructed from the IMFs. The $X_{ST}(t)$ and $X_{LT}(t)$ show that the market is random in short-term and correlated in long term. The study also show that the $X_{LT}(t)$ is correlated with fundamentals of the company. The analysis will be useful for investors to design the investment and trading strategy.
In todays increasingly international economy, return and volatility spillover effects across international equity markets are major macroeconomic drivers of stock dynamics. Thus, information regarding foreign markets is one of the most important factors in forecasting domestic stock prices. However, the cross-correlation between domestic and foreign markets is highly complex. Hence, it is extremely difficult to explicitly express this cross-correlation with a dynamical equation. In this study, we develop stock return prediction models that can jointly consider international markets, using multimodal deep learning. Our contributions are three-fold: (1) we visualize the transfer information between South Korea and US stock markets by using scatter plots; (2) we incorporate the information into the stock prediction models with the help of multimodal deep learning; (3) we conclusively demonstrate that the early and intermediate fusion models achieve a significant performance boost in comparison with the late fusion and single modality models. Our study indicates that jointly considering international stock markets can improve the prediction accuracy and deep neural networks are highly effective for such tasks.
We propose a novel method to quantify the clustering behavior in a complex time series and apply it to a high-frequency data of the financial markets. We find that regardless of used data sets, all data exhibits the volatility clustering properties, whereas those which filtered the volatility clustering effect by using the GARCH model reduce volatility clustering significantly. The result confirms that our method can measure the volatility clustering effect in financial market.
Data driven approaches for decision making applied to automated driving require appropriate generalization strategies, to ensure applicability to the worlds variability. Current approaches either do not generalize well beyond the training data or are not capable to consider a variable number of traffic participants. Therefore we propose an invariant environment representation from the perspective of the ego vehicle. The representation encodes all necessary information for safe decision making. To assess the generalization capabilities of the novel environment representation, we train our agents on a small subset of scenarios and evaluate on the entire diverse set of scenarios. Here we show that the agents are capable to generalize successfully to unseen scenarios, due to the abstraction. In addition we present a simple occlusion model that enables our agents to navigate intersections with occlusions without a significant change in performance.
