Research of neural network methods for compound stock exchange indices analysis
The presented article is about a research using artificial neural network (ANN) methods for compound (technical and fundamental) analysis and prognosis' of Lithuania's National Stock Exchange (LNSE) indices LITIN, LITIN-A and LITIN-VVP. We employed initial pre-processing (analysis for entropy and correlation) for filtering out model input variables (LNSE indices, macroeconomic indicators, Stock Exchange indices of other countries such as the USA - Dow Jones and S&P, EU - Eurex, Russia - RTS). Investigations for the best approximation and forecasting capabilities were performed using different backpropagation ANN learning algorithms, configurations, iteration numbers, data form-factors, etc. A wide spectrum of different results has shown a high sensitivity to ANN parameters. ANN autoregressive, autoregressive causative and causative trend model performances were compared in the approximation and forecasting by a linear discriminant analysis.
