چکیده

Our investment strategy for the world mutual funds can be divided into three main parts. First, the global trend indicator (GTI) is defined for evaluating the price change trend of the funds in the future. Then, based on GTI, we derive the monitoring indicator (MI) to measure whether the fund market is in the bull or bear state. Finally, to decide the signal for buying or selling funds, a genetic algorithm is invoked to dynamically select funds according to their past performances (profitability). In our experimental results from January 1999 to December 2008 (10 years in total), we achieve the annual profit higher than 10%.

Genetic Programming for the Investment of the Mutual Fund with Sortino Ratio and Mean Variance Model∗

In this paper, we propose two geneticprogramming-based models that improve the trading strategy for mutual funds. These two models can get better returns and reduce risks. The first model increases the return by selecting funds with high Sortino ratios and allocates the capital equally, achieving the best annualized return. The second model also selects funds with high Sortino ratios, but reduc...

Research of Blind Signals Separation with Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Mutual Information

Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...
