The classical Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm, one of population-based Evolutionary Computation methods, proved to be a successful approach for relatively simple problems, but does not perform well for difficult multi-dimensional non-convex functions. A number of significant modifications...

This paper proposes a new prediction function for the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET index). Included in the proposed prediction function are the important economic factors: namely, the Dow Jones, Nikkei, and Hang Seng indexes; the minimum loan rate (MLR); and the previous SET index. The tuning...

In this paper we compare the performance of three indices in an inflation forecasting experiment. The evidence not only suggests that an evolved neural network is superior to traditionally trained networks in the majority of cases, but also that a risky money index performs at least as well as...
