Visualizing Stock Market Data with Self-Organizing Map

چکیده
Finding useful patterns in stock market data requires tremendous analytical skills and effort. To help investors manage their portfolios, we developed a tool for clustering and visualizing stock market data using an unsupervised learning algorithm called Self-Organizing Map. Our tool is intended to assist users in identifying groups of stocks that have similar price movement patterns over a period of time. We performed a visual analysis by comparing the resulting visualization with Yahoo Finance charts. Overall, we found that the Self-Organizing Map algorithm can analyze and cluster the stock market data reasonably.

Stock Market Series Analysis Using Self-Organizing Maps
In this work a new clustering technique is implemented and tested. The proposed approach is based on the application of a SOM (self-organizing map) neural network and provides means to cluster U-MAT aggregated data. It relies on a flooding algorithm operating on the U-MAT and resorts to the Calinski and Harabask index to assess the depth of flooding, providing an adequate number of clusters. Th...

The paper addresses the problem of using Japanese candlestick methodology to analyze stock or forex market data by neural nets. Self organizing maps are presented as tools for providing maps of known candlestick formations. They may be used to visualize these patterns, and as inputs for more complex trading decision systems. In that case their role is preprocessing, coding and pre-classificatio...

Given financial data from popular sites like Yahoo and the London Exchange, the presented paper attempts to model and predict stocks that can be considered ”good investments”. Stocks are characterized by 125 features ranging from gross domestic product to EDIBTA, and are labeled by discrepancies between stock and market price returns. An artificial neural network (Self-Organizing Map) is fitted...
