Despite the obvious benefits and growing popularity of Machine Learning (ML) technology, there are still concerns regarding its ability to provide Financial Distress Prediction (FDP). An accurate FDP model is required to avoid financial risk at the lowest possible cost. However, in the Internet...

Traditional approaches to the study of technical analysis (TA) often focus on the performance of a single indicator, which seems to fall short in scope and depth. We use a genetic algorithm (GA) to optimize trading strategies in the three major Forex markets, in order to verify the adequacy of...

In supply chain inventory management, the backorder of products is a common occurrence. A backorder can only be successful if the supplier can be relied upon to provide the out-of-stock product when required or if the consumer is prepared to wait for the product without becoming impatient. So,...

Cloud manufacturing task scheduling (CMTS) gains widespread attention in the cloud manufacturing (CMfg) community. At present, most related researches are mainly aimed at task-oriented scheduling and there are few researches considering user’ characteristics, like user preferences. In this...

Algorithmic trading enables the execution of orders using a set of rules determined by a computer program. Orders are submitted based on an asset’s expected price in the future, an approach well suited for high-volatility markets, such as those trading in cryptocurrencies. The goal of this...

Classic artificial intelligence (Q-learning) algorithms have been capable of consistently learning supra-competitive pricing strategies in infinitely repeated Nash-Bertrand pricing games without human communication. Such algorithms have been able to converge due to the temporal correlation of...

Risk interaction network (RIN), a system comprised of risk (nodes) and triggering relations (edges) between risks, changes the likelihood of occurring and also the impact of a risk. An issue of optimizing RIN, allowing for the risk response actions of weakening risk interactions, departs from...
