The motivation for this paper is to determine the potential economic value of advanced modelling methods for devising trading decision tools for 10-year Government bonds. Two advanced methods are used: time-varying parameter models with the implementation of state space modelling using a Kalman...

In the current paper, we present an integrated genetic programming (GP) environment called java GP modelling. The java GP modelling environment is an implementation of the steady-state GP algorithm. This algorithm evolves tree-based structures that represent models of inputs and outputs. The...

The motivation for this article is the investigation of the use of a promising class of neural network (NN) models, higher order neural networks (HONNs), when applied to the task of forecasting and trading the 21-day-ahead realised volatility of the FTSE 100 futures index. This is done by...
