A Generative Adversarial Networks model to generate realistic correlation matrices. In these slides, we discuss a use case in quantitative finance (comparison of risk-based portfolio allocation methods), and how to improve the seminal model with information geometry (Riemannian neural networks suited for correlation matrices). There are many use cases to explore within, and outside, quantitative finance. The Riemannian geometry of correlation matrices is still under-developed.
We highlight exciting problems at the intersection of Riemannian geometry and deep learning.

This document summarizes a presentation on statistical clustering, hierarchical PCA, and their applications to portfolio management. It introduces PCA and how the first principal component/eigenportfolio can represent the market portfolio. It then describes hierarchical PCA, which partitions assets into clusters and allows for different correlations between and within clusters. The document provides examples analyzing global stock markets with hierarchical PCA. It also describes an algorithm for statistically generating clusters rather than using predefined classifications. Finally, it discusses applications of statistical clustering and hierarchical PCA models to portfolio optimization and mean-variance analysis.
The document discusses implied volatility, an alternative to the Black-Scholes model for estimating the volatility of an asset. It describes using the binomial model and Newton-Raphson iteration to estimate implied volatility from option prices. Practical applications of implied volatility include forecasting volatility and using it as an input for risk models. The next steps proposed are to program the Newton-Raphson algorithm for a distributed environment and consider estimating a volatility surface rather than a single value.

Software development is a knowledge-intensive activity, which requires mastering several languages, frameworks, technology trends (among other aspects) under the pressure of ever-increasing arrays of external libraries and resources.
Recommender systems are gaining high relevance in software
engineering since they aim at providing developers with real-time recommendations, which can reduce the time spent on discovering and understanding reusable artifacts from software repositories, and thus inducing productivity and quality gains.
In this presentation, we focus on the problem of mining open source software repositories to identify similar projects, which can be evaluated and eventually reused by developers. To this end, CROSSSIM is proposed as a novel approach to model open source software projects and related artifacts and to compute similarities among them. An evaluation on a dataset containing 580 GitHub projects shows that CROSSSIM outperforms an existing technique, which has been proven to have a good performance in detecting similar GitHub repositories.
Linear Regression with R programming.pptxanshikagoel52
The document discusses linear regression and its applications. It begins with defining data mining and business analytics. It then outlines the stages of analytics and data mining processes. Linear regression is introduced as a supervised machine learning algorithm that models the relationship between a scalar dependent variable and one or more explanatory variables. Linear regression can be used for prediction and forecasting based on fitting a model to observed data. An example case study is given of using linear regression to analyze computer price data and predict the price of a new computer configuration based on factors like CPU speed, hard drive size, RAM, etc.
DL-FOIL is an algorithm for concept learning that produces concept descriptions in description logic. It was modified from a previous DL-FOIL algorithm to improve the specialization procedure and heuristic. Preliminary experiments show it achieves good match rates compared to another concept learning method on several ontology datasets. Ongoing work includes additional evaluations, improving specialization procedures and heuristics, and addressing scalability through parallel and distributed computation.
Goodness–of–fit tests for regression models: the functional data caseNeuroMat
In this talk the topic of the goodness–of–fit for regression models with functional covariates is considered. Although several papers have been published in the last two decades for the checking of regression models, the case where the covariates are functional is quite recent and has became of interest in the last years. We will review the very recent advances in this area and we will propose a new goodness–of–fit test for the null hypothesis of a functional linear model with scalar response. Our test is based on a generalization to the functional framework of a previous one, designed for the goodness–of–fit of regression models with multivariate covariates using random projections. The test statistic is easy to compute using geometrical and matrix arguments, and simple to calibrate in its distribution by a wild bootstrap on the residuals. Some theoretical aspects are derived and the finite sample properties of the test are illustrated by a simulation study. Finally, the test is applied to real data for checking the assumption of the functional linear model and a graphical tool is introduced. Lecturer: Wenceslao González-Manteiga, Univ. de Santiago de Compostela, Spain.
Additive Smoothing for Relevance-Based Language Modelling of Recommender Syst...Daniel Valcarce
This document summarizes a presentation on additive smoothing for relevance-based language modelling of recommender systems. It discusses using pseudo-relevance feedback and relevance models for collaborative filtering recommendations. Specifically, it examines how different collection-based smoothing techniques like Dirichlet priors, Jelinek-Mercer, and absolute discounting can demote the desired IDF effect, which promotes less popular items. The document proposes using additive smoothing, which does not demote the IDF effect. Experiments on movie recommendation datasets show additive smoothing achieves better accuracy, diversity, and novelty than other smoothing methods.
Extracting relevant Metrics with Spectral Clustering - Evelyn TrautmannPyData
On a fast growing online platform arise numerous metrics. With increasing amount of metrics methods of exploratory data analysis are becoming more and more important. We will show how recognition of similar metrics and clustering can make monitoring feasible and provide a better understanding of their mutual dependencies.
These Lecture series are relating the use R language software, its interface and functions required to evaluate financial risk models. Furthermore, R software applications relating financial market data, measuring risk, modern portfolio theory, risk modeling relating returns generalized hyperbolic and lambda distributions, Value at Risk (VaR) modelling, extreme value methods and models, the class of ARCH models, GARCH risk models and portfolio optimization approaches.
As optimization (or prescriptive analytics) has grown as a tool for business decision-making, a key factor in its success has been the adoption of model-based optimization. Using this approach, an analyst’s major work is to describe a problem of interest by means of an algebraic model, while the computation of a solution is left to general-purpose, off-the-shelf software. Powerful modeling systems manage the difficulties of translating between the human modeler’s ideas and the computer software’s needs. This tutorial introduces model-based optimization and offers a guide to its effective use.
Qu speaker series 14: Synthetic Data Generation in FinanceQuantUniversity
In this master class, Stefan shows how to create synthetic time-series data using generative adversarial networks (GAN). GANs train a generator and a discriminator network in a competitive setting so that the generator learns to produce samples that the discriminator cannot distinguish from a given class of training data. The goal is to yield a generative model capable of producing synthetic samples representative of this class. While most popular with image data, GANs have also been used to generate synthetic time-series data in the medical domain. Subsequent experiments with financial data explored whether GANs can produce alternative price trajectories useful for ML training or strategy backtests.
Comparison of Cost Estimation Methods using Hybrid Artificial Intelligence on...IJERA Editor
Cost estimating at schematic design stage as the basis of project evaluation, engineering design, and cost
management, plays an important role in project decision under a limited definition of scope and constraints in
available information and time, and the presence of uncertainties. The purpose of this study is to compare the
performance of cost estimation models of two different hybrid artificial intelligence approaches: regression
analysis-adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (RANFIS) and case based reasoning-genetic algorithm (CBRGA)
techniques. The models were developed based on the same 50 low-cost apartment project datasets in
Indonesia. Tested on another five testing data, the models were proven to perform very well in term of accuracy.
A CBR-GA model was found to be the best performer but suffered from disadvantage of needing 15 cost drivers
if compared to only 4 cost drivers required by RANFIS for on-par performance.
March 2, 2018 - Machine Learning for Production ForecastingDavid Fulford
This document summarizes a presentation on using machine learning for production forecasting. It discusses challenges with traditional forecasting models for unconventional wells, which can have long transient flow periods. A new transient hyperbolic model was developed that better accounts for the different flow regimes. Machine learning techniques like Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation are applied to estimate model parameters and quantify uncertainty. This allows incorporating historical data to improve forecasts of future well performance compared to simple regression models.
Price optimization for high-mix, low-volume environments | Using R and Tablea...Wil Davis
Worthington Industries’ steel products are highly customized to end-user specifications. This high-mix, low-volume business makes price optimization using traditional methods difficult. Determining which products/markets to include or exclude from a given comparative analysis is often subjective and can lead to inconsistent recommendations. In our case, machine learning methods resulted in over-fitting due to insufficient training data. Tableau with R allows our analysts to test different market conditions using the power of predictive analytics (logistic regression) in a user-friendly environment. This tool represents the latest evolution in Worthington’s growing adoption of Tableau Server, deploying increasingly sophisticated features to our 50+ users.
This document discusses using machine learning algorithms to predict the direction of movements in the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index. It compares the performance of artificial neural networks (ANN) to logistic regression, linear discriminant analysis, quadratic discriminant analysis, and k-nearest neighbors classification. The ANN achieved approximately 61% accuracy in predicting the direction of returns using opening stock prices, outperforming the other techniques. The document serves to analyze which algorithm provides the most accurate financial forecasts.
Slide: Formal Verification of Probabilistic Systems in ASMETARiccardo Melioli
Information Technology (IT) systems are constantly growing in everyday life, particularly in safety-critical scenarios (such as the automotive, avionics, medical, etc.) in which reliability and correctness are the main requirements that must be guaranteed.
The complexity of the information systems is increasing, and recently, in the scenario of modern systems, the Cyber-Physical System (CPS) emerged as systems in which the software component interacts continuously with the physical system in which the software operates. Compared to the dynamics of classical systems, the physical component of a CPS introduces new aspects to consider in the behavior of a system, in particular probabilistic behaviors.

This document discusses calibration of computer models in the face of model discrepancy. It begins by introducing the problem of calibrating a computer model S to a real complex system Z, where discrepancy δ exists between them. The standard Bayesian approach of Kennedy and O'Hagan is described. An issue is that Bayesian inference is performed on the joint model Mζ regardless of data size. The document explores using a Bayesian treed model to partition the input/calibration space, allowing basic GP models to be fit in each region to better represent local features and discontinuities. It suggests this approach may help mitigate non-identifiability issues compared to a standard Bayesian calibration.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.

3. Background
P. D Falorsi, F. Petrarca, P. Righi– workshop CCMS, 19 november 2018
The register values are the output of
statistical processes subject to statistical
uncertainty with respect to both units and
variables.
The availability of a register enables
different stakeholders to produce
estimates for different domains by
summing up the domain values in the
register.
Some of these estimates could be highly
inaccurate.

7. The measure of accuracy
In our observational setting:
The sampling design enables the observation of the sample S
the statistical model M generates the variable y
Proposed Measure: Anticipated Variance: (Isaki and Fuller, 1982;
Sarndäl et al., 1992; Nedyalkova and Tillé, 2008; Nirel, and Glickman, 2009; Falorsi
and Righi, 2015)
The AV neutralizes the variability due to a pure model variability of the
parameter 𝑌𝑑
Alternative measure Global Variance (Wolter (1986) 𝐺𝑉 𝑌𝑑 =
𝐸 𝑃 𝐸 𝑀 𝑌𝑑 − 𝐸 𝑃 𝐸 𝑀(𝑌𝑑)
2
= 𝐸 𝑃 𝑉 𝑀 𝑌𝑑 𝝀 + 𝑉𝑃 𝐸 𝑀 𝑌𝑑 𝝀 .

𝐴𝑉 𝑌𝑑 = 𝐸 𝑃 𝐸 𝑀 𝑌𝑑 − 𝑌𝑑

= 𝐸 𝑃 𝑉 𝑀 𝑌𝑑 𝝀 + 𝑉𝑃 𝐸 𝑀 𝑌𝑑 𝝀 − 𝑉 𝑀 𝑌𝑑 .
8. Computational aspects
Two main approximations:
We consider the Taylor’s series expansion of the
function 𝑓 𝒙 𝑘; 𝒕 evaluated at the point 𝑓 𝒙 𝑘; 𝝑
We approximate the actual sampling design with a
Poisson sampling design which has the same first
order inclusion probabilities as the actual design.
This makes for a conservative measure of the sampling
variability.

14. Strategies for making users aware of the accuracy
The plug-in estimate of the AV may be computed by
replacing the estimates 𝒕 , 𝒚 and 𝚺 𝑦 instead of the
unknown parameters 𝝑 , 𝒚 and 𝚺 𝑦 in the expressions
of the different components of the AV.
These plug-in estimates Ziegler (2015, point 5, pp.121)
are strongly consistent estimator of the variance
This is non computationally feasible for a generic
register user
Users may define their aggregates on the fly

15. Strategies for making users aware of the accuracy
Two strategies for ensuring the users be aware of
the accuracy
1. The first is based on the development of a software
applications that together with the production of the
aggregates 𝑌𝑑 will provide the user the estimates of
the corresponding AV
2. The second exploits the existing relationship
between the squared relative error
𝐴𝑉 𝑌 𝑑
𝑌𝑑
2 = 𝜖2 𝑌𝑑
and the total of the estimate 𝑌𝑑
A model often used for the presentation of the
sampling errors in the Italian social sample surveys
is 𝜖2 𝑌𝑑 = 𝛼1 𝑌𝑑

16. Strategies for making users aware of the accuracy
Both strategies are based on developments above
presented
The second is less computationally cumbersome
on the fly

17. Preliminary conclusions & further steps
• We are reflecting on different strategies which allow
the users of a statistical register to be of aware of
the accuracy of their estimates.
• We have proposed the AV as suitable measure for
the accuracy
• We have deepened some aspects for the
computation the different component of the AV,
considering a simplified statistical setting.
• Further steps in this research line are those of
evaluating the strengths, robustness and
computational feasibility of the results with some
simulation studies.
