Specialized autoencoders for dimension reduction in quant models of financial markets (AENC)

Project description

Autoencoders for Financial Markets (AENC)

Overview

This package implements specialized autoencoders and related classical methods for performing dimension reduction in quant models of financial markets. Potential uses include investment strategy research, portfolio valuation, and risk management.

Quick Start Guide

Install using:

pip install aenc

Namespaces

Namespace aenc.core implements autoencoders and related classical methods, including generic (such as PCA) and specialized (such as Nelson-Siegel).

The implementation uses PyTorch and can be easily ported to TensorFlow 2 and other machine learning frameworks that support dynamic computational graphs.

Namespace aenc.dummy includes dummy objects and generators for dummy market data for testing purposes. To perform testing or training on real market data, provide your own historical market data files in the same format as the dummy data files, or use pretrained components.

Namespace aenc.pretrained includes pretrained components to avoid lengthy test execution time. Use flags to ignore pretrained parameters and perform training from scratch (calculation time will increase).
