Two new HONNs, the Correlation HONN (CHONN) and the Horizontal HONN (HorizHONN) outperform all other models tested in terms of the Akaike Information Criterion, out-of-sample root mean square error, of FTSE100 and NASDAQ giving out-of-sample Hit Rates of up to 60% with AIC improvement up to 6.2%. New hybrid models for volatility estimation are formed by combining CHONN with E/GARCH are compared with conventional EGARCH, providing up to 2.1% and 2.7% AIC improvement for FTSE100 and NASDAQ. date: 2010-06-11 vfaculties: VENG oa_status: green primo: open primo_central: open_green elements_source: Manually entered elements_id: 239925 lyricists_name: Selviah, David lyricists_id: DRSEL91 full_text_status: public event_title: Algorithmic Trading - Future Directions and Opportunities for Research event_location: University College London, London, UK citation: Shawash, J; Selviah, DR; (2010) FTSE 100 Returns and Volatility estimation using Higher Order Neural Networks - Poster Paper.
