Deep learning has recently achieved great success in many areas due to its strong capacity in data process. For instance, it has been widely used in financial areas such as stock market prediction, portfolio optimization, financial information processing and trade execution strategies. Stock market prediction is one of the most popular and valuable area in finance. In this paper, we propose a novel architecture of Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) with the Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) as the discriminator and the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) as the generator for forecasting the closing price of stocks. The generator is built by LSTM to mine the data distributions of stocks from given data in stock market and generate data in the same distributions, whereas the discriminator designed by MLP aims to discriminate the real stock data and generated data. We choose the daily data on S&P 500 Index and several stocks in a wide range of trading days and try to predict the daily closing price. Experimental results show that our novel GAN can get a promising performance in the closing price prediction on the real data compared with other models in machine learning and deep learning.

Stock Market Prediction Based on Generative Adversarial Network.

In this literature review, we investigate machine learning techniques that are applied for stock market prediction. A focus area in this literature review is the stock markets investigated in the literature as well as the types of variables used as input in the machine learning techniques used for predicting these markets. We examined 138 journal articles published between 2000 and 2019. The main contributions of this review are: (1) an extensive examination of the data, in particular, the markets and stock indices covered in the predictions, as well as the 2173 unique variables used for stock market predictions, including technical indicators, macro-economic variables, and fundamental indicators, and (2) an in-depth review of the machine learning techniques and their variants deployed for the predictions. In addition, we provide a bibliometric analysis of these journal articles, highlighting the most influential works and articles. 

Machine learning techniques and data for stock market forecasting: A literature review

In the financial domain, risk modeling and profit generation heavily rely on the sophisticated and intricate stock movement prediction task. Stock forecasting is complex, given the stochastic dynamics and non-stationary behavior of the market. Stock movements are influenced by varied factors beyond the conventionally studied historical prices, such as social media and correlations among stocks. The rising ubiquity of online content and knowledge mandates an exploration of models that factor in such multimodal signals for accurate stock forecasting. We introduce an architecture that achieves a potent blend of chaotic temporal signals from financial data, social media, and inter-stock relationships via a graph neural network in a hierarchical temporal fashion. Through experiments on real-world S\&P 500 index data and English tweets, we show the practical applicability of our model as a tool for investment decision making and trading.

Graph-based deep learning for communication networks: A survey

Communication networks are important infrastructures in contemporary society. There are still many challenges that are not fully solved and new solutions are proposed continuously in this active research area. In recent years, to model the network topology, graph-based deep learning has achieved state-of-the-art performance in a series of problems in communication networks. In this survey, we review the rapidly growing body of research using different graph-based deep learning models, e.g. graph convolutional and graph attention networks, in various problems from different communication networks, e.g. wireless networks, wired networks, and software-defined networks. We also present a well-organized list of the problem and solution for each study and identify future research directions. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first survey that focuses on the application of graph-based deep learning methods in communication networks. To track the follow-up research, a public GitHub repository is created, where the relevant papers will be updated continuously.

Graph-based Deep Learning for Communication Networks: A Survey.

Stock market prediction has been a classical yet challenging problem, with the attention from both economists and computer scientists. With the purpose of building an effective prediction model, both linear and machine learning tools have been explored for the past couple of decades. Lately, deep learning models have been introduced as new frontiers for this topic and the rapid development is too fast to catch up. Hence, our motivation for this survey is to give a latest review of recent works on deep learning models for stock market prediction. We not only category the different data sources, various neural network structures, and common used evaluation metrics, but also the implementation and reproducibility. Our goal is to help the interested researchers to synchronize with the latest progress and also help them to easily reproduce the previous studies as baselines. Based on the summary, we also highlight some future research directions in this topic.
