this paper presents a new meta-heuristic solution to find the efficient frontier using the mean-variance approach. portfolio optimization problem is a quadratic programming model and, changes to np-hard if the number of assets and constraints has increased, and it cannot be solved using common mathematical methods in a reasonable time. therefore, a heuristic or meta-heuristic algorithm should b...

in financial matters, portfolio can be interpreted as a combination or a series of investments hold by an institution or a person. portfolio optimization is one of the most important concerns of investors for maximizing the portfolio in financial markets. the formation of portfolio is a vital and critical decision for the companies.  in fact, the selection of portfolio is to specify the capital...

This paper presents novel krill herd (KH) nature-inspired metaheuristics for solving portfolio optimization task. Krill herd algorithm mimics the herding behavior of krill individuals. The objective function for the krill movement is defined by the minimum distances of each individual krill from food and from higher density of the herd. Constrained portfolio optimization problem extends the cla...

Portfolio optimization problem has received a lot of attention from both researchers and practitioners over the last six decades. This paper provides an overview of the current state of research in portfolio optimization with the support of mathematical programming techniques. On top of that, this paper also surveys the solution algorithms for solving portfolio optimization models classifying t...

In this research, we proposed a new metaheuristic technique for stock portfolio multi-objective optimization employing the combination of Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm (SPEA), Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT). To generate the more precise model, ANFIS has implemented to envisage long-term movement values of the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE)...

With the aim of portfolio optimization and management, this article utilizes the Clayton-copula along with copula theory measures. Portfolio-Optimization is one of the activities in investment funds. Thus, it is essential to select an appropriate optimization method. In modern financial analyses, there is growing evidence indicating the distribution of proceeds of financial properties is not cu...
