Evolutionary Algorithms and the Cardinality Constrained Portfolio Optimization Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
While the unconstrained portfolio optimization problem can be solved efficiently by standard algorithms, this is not the case for the portfolio optimization problem with additional real world constraints like cardinality constraints, buy-in thresholds, roundlots etc. In this paper we investigate two extensions to Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) applied to the portfolio optimization problem. First, we introduce a problem specific EA representation and then we add a local search for feasible solutions to improve the performance of the EA. All algorithms are compared on the constrained and unconstrained portfolio optimization problem.

Many portfolio optimization problems deal with allocation of assets which carry a relatively high market price. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the integer value of assets when we deal with portfolio optimization. In addition, one of the main concerns with most portfolio optimization is associated with the type of constraints considered in different models. In many cases, the resulted p...

متن کاملA learning-guided multi-objective evolutionary algorithm for constrained portfolio optimization
Portfolio optimization involves the optimal assignment of limited capital to different available financial assets to achieve a reasonable trade-off between profit and risk objectives. In this paper, we studied the extended Markowitz’s meanvariance portfolio optimization model. We considered the cardinality, quantity, pre-assignment and round lot constraints in the extended model. These four rea...
