The goal of present experiments is to investigate the use of multiple kernel learning as a tool for pricing options in the context of Indian stock market for Nifty index options. In this paper, fair price of an option is predicted by Multiple Kernel Support Vector Regression (MKLSVR) using linear combinations of kernels and Single Kernel Support Vector Regression (SKSVR). Prices of option highl...

This note examines the weak-form market efficiency of the Australian stock market. Daily returns from 6 January 1958 to 12 April 2006 and monthly returns from February 1875 to December 2005 are examined for random walks using serial correlation coefficient and runs tests, Augmented Dickey-Fuller, Phillips-Perron and Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt and Shin unit root tests and multiple variance r...

Dog rose (Rosa canina) is one of the most important flower crops in the world and has a value in ornamental, pharmaceutical and cosmetic trade. Also it was used as a root stock for other cultivars of Rose. Hence this investigation was attempted with the aim to study direct regeneration of Rosa canina. The experimental data of the present investigation was analyzed statistically by using complet...

In order to isolate gravitropism mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. var Estland for the genetic dissection of the gravitropism pathway, a direct screening procedure has been developed in which mutants are selected on the basis of their gravitropic response. Variability in hypocotyl curvature was dependent on the germination time of each seed stock, resulting in the incorrect identific...

Context NXP operates in a highly dynamic and globalized semiconductor market. The NXP supply chain control is like it peers in semiconductor business quite complex. To manage the supply chain and to deal with the market characteristics, six so called Business Renewal II objectives were launched as part of the one page strategy. On one hand the BR II objectives target for a lower break-even poin...

We investigate the stationarity of daily real stock prices in 12 Asia-Pacific countries over period 1991–2020. The methodology employed is driven by need to address three key concerns: (i) identification association between size shocks and stationarity; (ii) different speeds adjustment towards long-run equilibrium; (iii) mean reversion potential asymmetric speed before after 2008–2009 global fi...
