In this paper we modify the Gaussian Process Regression Monte Carlo (GPR-MC) method introduced by Gouden\`ege et al. proposing two efficient techniques which allow one to compute the price of American basket options. In particular, we consider  basket of assets that follow a  Black-Scholes dynamics. The proposed techniques, called GPR Tree (GRP-Tree) and GPR Exact Integration (GPR-EI), are both based on Machine Learning, exploited together with binomial trees or with a closed formula for integration. Moreover, these two methods solve the backward dynamic programming problem considering a Bermudan approximation of the American option. On the exercise dates, the value of the option is first computed as the maximum between the exercise value and the continuation value and then approximated by means of Gaussian Process Regression. Both the two methods derive from the GPR-MC method and they mainly differ in the method used to approximate the continuation value: a single step of binomial tree or integration according to the probability density of the process. Numerical results show that these two methods are accurate and reliable and improve the results of the GPR-MC method in handling American options on very large baskets of assets  .
In this paper we propose two efficient techniques which allow one to compute the price of American basket options. In particular, we consider a basket of assets that follow a multi-dimensional Black-Scholes dynamics. The proposed techniques, called GPR Tree (GRP-Tree) and GPR Exact Integration (GPR-EI), are both based on Machine Learning, exploited together with binomial trees or with a closed formula for integration. Moreover, these two methods solve the backward dynamic programming problem considering a Bermudan approximation of the American option.

The two methods mainly differ in the approach used to compute the continuation value: a single step of binomial tree or integration according to the probability density of the process. Numerical results show that these two methods are accurate and reliable in handling American options on very large baskets of assets . Moreover we also consider the rough Bergomi model, which provides stochastic volatility with memory. Despite this model is only bidimensional, the whole history of the process impacts on the price, and handling all this information is not obvious at all. To this aim, we present how to adapt the GPR-Tree and GPR-EI methods and we focus on pricing American options in this non-Markovian framework .
