In most of the empirical research on capital markets, stock market indexes are used as proxies for the aggregate market development. In previous work we found that a particular market segment might be less efficient than the whole market and hence easier to forecast. In this paper we extend the...

This paper presents a computational approach for predicting the S&P CNX Nifty 50 Index. A neural network based model has been used in predicting the direction of the movement of the closing value for the next day of trading. The model presented in the paper also confirms that it can be used to...

In this work we use Recurrent Neural Networks and Multilayer Perceptrons, to predict NYSE, NASDAQ and AMEX stock prices from historical data. We experiment with different architectures and compare data normalization techniques. Then, we leverage those findings to question the efficient-market...

This paper presents a study of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Bayesian Network (BN) for use in stock index prediction. The data from Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) market are applied as a case study. Based on the rescaled range analysis, the neural network was used to capture the...

In this paper we focus on analyzing the predictive accuracy of three different types of forecasting techniques, Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Singular Spectral Analysis (SSA), used for predicting chaotic time series data. These techniques...

Recent advances in natural language processing have contributed to the development of market sentiment measures through text content analysis in news providers and social media. The effectiveness of these sentiment variables depends on the implemented techniques and the type of source on which...

Since stock markets are volatile, dynamic and complicated, forecasting stock market return is considered as a challenging task. Nevertheless, researchers have developed various linear and non linear methods for effective forecasting. Among these neural networks are most suitable for forecasting...
