This study compares the performances of neural network and Black-Scholes models in pricing BIST30 (Borsa Istanbul) index call and put options with different volatility forecasting approaches. Since the volatility is the key parameter in pricing options, GARCH (Generalized Autoregressive...

Time-series forecasting is essential for system analysis. Many traditional studies have paid attention to individual stock-oriented solutions and disregarded general approaches on financial time series or skipped the dynamics of the system and its triggering components. It is difficult to fully...

Using state-of-the-art recurrent neural network architectures, this study attempts to predict credit default swap risk premia for BR[I]CS countries as accurately as possible. In the time series setting, these recurrent neural networks are ELMAN, NARX, GRU, and LSTM RNNs, considering local and...
