Co-evolution vs. Neural Networks; An Evaluation of UK Risky Money
The performance of a ‘capital certain’ Divisia index constructed using the same components included in the Bank of England’s MSI plus national savings; a ‘risky’ Divisia index constructed by adding bonds, shares and unit trusts to the list of assets included in the first index; and a capital certain simple sum index for comparison is compared. The evidence suggests that co-evolutionary strategi...
متن کاملEvolutionary Strategies vs. Neural Networks; An Inflation Forecasting Experiment
Previous work has used neural networks to predict the rate of inflation in Taiwan using four measures of ‘money’ (simple sum and three divisia measures). In this work we develop a new approach that uses an evolutionary strategy as a predictive tool. This approach is simple to implement yet produces results that are favourable with the neural network predictions. Computational results are given.

متن کاملCo-Evolving Neural Networks with evolutionary Strategies: A New Application to Divisia Money
This work applies state-of-the-art artificial intelligence forecasting methods to provide new evidence of the comparative performance of statistically weighted Divisia indices vis a vis their simple sum counterparts in a simple inflation forecasting experiment. We develop a new approach that uses coevolution (using neural networks and evolutionary strategies) as a predictive tool. This approach...
متن کاملFinancial innovation and Divisia monetary indices in Taiwan: a neural network approach
In this paper a weigh ted index measure of money using the ‘Divisia’ formulation is constructed for the Taiwan economy and its in ation forecasting potential is compared with that of it s traditional simple sum counterpar t . This research extends an earlier s tudy by Gazely and Binner by examining the theory that rapid nancial innovation, par ticularly during the nancial liberalization of...
