DeepSurrogatepin 1.7

Deep surrogate model for the probability of informed trading model

Master thesis: Deep Structural estimation: with an application to market microstructure modelling

This package proposes an easy application of the master thesis: "Deep Structural estimation: with an application to market microstructure modelling"

The figure above shows the log-likelihood value of the PIN model (left) and the Deep-Surrogate (right)

Instructions

1. Download parameters of the surrogate (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RTtYqOipJ-OJpveLu9Ui9NbYGvCDJtNL?usp=sharing)
2. Create a folder "model_save" and put parameters inside
3. Download training datatset "simulation_data_PIN.txt" from https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iUR-Zsd_UAo8bnZEMh5hpQ0SjYtpmtQA/view?usp=sharing
4. Create a folder "data" and put the dataset inside.
5. Now, you can use the train dataset or you could generate your own dataset (https://github.com/edwinhu/pin-code)

• Instantiate a surrogate object with: surrogate = DeepSurrogate()
• Use get_derivative to get the first derivative of the log-likelihood function's for each input:
  • surrogate.get_derivative(X)
• Use get_pin to get the PIN value with the number of buy and sell trades computed thanks to the Lee and ready algorithm
  • *surogate.get_pin(X) -> X should be a pandas Dataframe containing 'Buy' and "sell colmuns. Or a numpy array with the colmuns in the following order: ['buy', 'sell']
• The Input X should be a pandas DataFrame containing the name of the models parameters. Or a numpy with the columns in the order below:
  • PIN | ['alpha', 'delta', 'epsilon_b', 'epsilon_s', 'mu', 'buy', 'sell']

Parameter range

Surrogate model are defined inside some specific range of parameter. PIN model in this surrogate library have been trained inside the range defined the table below. The surroate can not estimate PIN probability with parameters outside of this range of parameters.

Parameter	Min	Max
a	0	0.99
δ	0	0.99
μ	100	300
ε_buy	100	300
ε_sell	100	300
# of buy trades	55	700
# of sell trades	55	700

Code example

from model.deepsurrogate import DeepSurrogate
from model.ml_model import NetworkModel
from model.parameters import Params
import sys

par = Params()
deepsurrogate = DeepSurrogate()

Now, we can use demo.py and estimate_par_lbfgs.py.
