This chapter explains why standard cross-validation (CV) methods, like k-fold, fail in finance and lead to overfit models with false results.
Research Topics:
- This chapter explains why ensemble methods are effective and how to avoid common errors when applying them to finance.
- This chapter explains how to perform hyper-parameter tuning for financial machine learning, emphasizing that standard cross-validation (CV) methods will fail and lead to overfitting.
- We propose a novel solution for quasi-linear partial differential equations which is computationally efficient and accurate.
- This chapter introduces Hierarchical Risk Parity (HRP), a machine learning-based asset allocation method designed to overcome the critical flaws of traditional quadratic optimizers, such as Markowitz’s Critical Line Algorithm (CLA).
