• Abstract: This paper introduces a consistent estimator and rate of convergence for the precision matrix of asset returns in large portfolios using a non-linear factor model within the deep learning framework. Our estimator remains valid even in low signal-to-noise ratio environments typical for financial markets and is compatible with weak factors. Our theoretical analysis establishes uniform bounds on expected estimation risk based on deep neural networks for an expanding number of assets. Additionally, we provide a new consistent data-dependent estimator of error covariance in deep neural networks. Our models demonstrate superior accuracy in extensive simulations and the empirics.

• Robust deep learning from weakly dependent data [0.0]
  This paper considers robust deep learning from weakly dependent observations, with unbounded loss function and unbounded input/output. We derive a relationship between these bounds and $r$, and when the data have moments of any order (that is $r=infty$), the convergence rate is close to some well-known results.

  We reinvigorate maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) for macroeconomic density forecasting through a novel neural network architecture with dedicated mean and variance hemispheres. Our Hemisphere Neural Network (HNN) provides proactive volatility forecasts based on leading indicators when it can, and reactive volatility based on the magnitude of previous prediction errors when it must.

  empirical optimization is central to modern machine learning, but its role in its success is still unclear. We show that it commonly arises in parameters of discrete multiplicative noise due to variance. A detailed analysis is conducted in which we describe on key factors, including recent step size, and data, all exhibit similar results on state-of-the-art neural network models.

A Koopman-based framework, called Koopman with nonlinear forcing (KNF), leads to the same level of accuracy in the statistics at a significantly lower computational expense.
