Inhalte der LV: | ||
The lecture will be held on campus unless activity on campus becomes unavailable. Should activity on campus becomes impossible then students will be informed about the new mode of teaching. Students are expected to be active in the class. Attendance during classes is mandatory.
The lecture introduces several fundamental concepts from machine learning and treats important applications in finance. It will cover topics like -Neural networks -Universal approximation theorems, -Stochastic gradient descent, -Backpropagation. The financial applications include -deep hedging, -deep portfolio optimization, -deep simulation and -deep calibration. |
||
Lernergebnisse (Learning Outcomes): | ||
After completing this class the student will have the ability to... -theoretically understand neural networks, stochastic gradient descent, reservoir computing, etc. -apply modern machine learning techniques to solve problems arising in quantitative finance, like hedging, portfolio optimization, prediction and calibration tasks. |
||
Regelung zur Anwesenheit: | ||
Students are expected to be active in the class. |
||
Lehr-/Lerndesign: | ||
This class is taught as a lecture complemented with exercises and a coding project. |
