NeuralEF: Learning the Efficient Frontier

Sept 2023 — Accepted into NeurIPS2023 — We show how neural networks can be used to solve discontinuous convex optimization problems with heterogeneous linear constraints, which are used in pricing basket option derivatives, by reformulating them as a sequence SEQ2SEQ problems.

1,000,000x faster models: how it works

Jan 2020 — Deep neural networks can be trained to learn a functional approximation of derivatives valuation models that use mathematic simulations. Riskfuel AI-based technology cuts the computation costs to virtually zero allowing for on-demand recalculation of portfolio values and a complete up-to-the-second view on risk

Deeply Learning Derivatives: The Paper that Started It All

Oct 2018 — This paper shows how we can use deep learning neural networks to value derivatives. The approach is broadly applicable, and we use a call option on a basket of stocks as an example. We show that the deep learning model is accurate and very fast, capable of producing valuations a million times faster than traditional models.
