چکیده

Recently, Support Vector Regression (SVR) has been introduced to solve regression and prediction problems. In this paper, we apply SVR to financial prediction tasks. In particular, the financial data are usually noisy and the associated risk is time-varying. Therefore, our SVR model is an extension of the standard SVR which incorporates margins adaptation. By varying the margins of the SVR, we could reflect the change in volatility of the financial data. Furthermore, we have analyzed the effect of asymmetrical margins so as to allow for the reduction of the downside risk. Our experimental results show that the use of standard deviation to calculate a variable margin gives a good predictive result in the prediction of Hang Seng Index.

Research on The Prediction of Stock Market Based on Chaos and SVM

-The stock market is a very complex system, so it is necessary to use the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm with small sample learning characteristics. The stock market is also a chaotic system, whose financial time series data has chaotic characteristics of random, noise and strong nonlinear. However, the support vector machine for a given time series is usually not considered its chaotic...
