We introduce an event based framework of directional changes and overshoots to map continuous financial data into the so-called Intrinsic Network - a state based discretisation of intrinsically dissected time series. Defining a method for state contraction of Intrinsic Network, we show that it...

We discuss how maximum entropy methods may be applied to the reconstruction of Markov processes underlying empirical time series and compare this approach to usual frequency sampling. It is shown that, at least in low dimension, there exists a subset of the space of stochastic matrices for which...

In this study, optimal indicators and strategies for foreign exchange trading models are investigated in the framework of genetic algorithms. We first explain how the relevant quantities of our application can be encoded in quot;genesquot; so as to fit the requirements of the genetic...
