• Title: Transfer learning for financial data predictions: a systematic review
• Authors: V. Lanzetta
• Abstract summary: Financial time series data pose significant challenges for accurate stock price prediction. Traditional statistical methodologies made assumptions, such as linearity and normality, which are not suitable for the non-linear nature of financial time series. Machine learning methodologies are able to capture non linear relationship in the data.

• Abstract: Literature highlighted that financial time series data pose significant challenges for accurate stock price prediction, because these data are characterized by noise and susceptibility to news; traditional statistical methodologies made assumptions, such as linearity and normality, which are not suitable for the non-linear nature of financial time series; on the other hand, machine learning methodologies are able to capture non linear relationship in the data. To date, neural network is considered the main machine learning tool for the financial prices prediction. Transfer Learning, as a method aimed at transferring knowledge from source tasks to target tasks, can represent a very useful methodological tool for getting better financial prediction capability. Current reviews on the above body of knowledge are mainly focused on neural network architectures, for financial prediction, with very little emphasis on the transfer learning methodology; thus, this paper is aimed at going deeper on this topic by developing a systematic review with respect to application of Transfer Learning for financial market predictions and to challenges/potential future directions of the transfer learning methodologies for stock market predictions.

  We propose a method to efficiently retain the knowledge available in a neural network pre-trained on a set of securities. In our method, the prior knowledge encoded in a pre-trained neural network is maintained by keeping existing connections fixed. This knowledge is adjusted for the new securities by a set of augmented connections, which are optimized using the new data.

  Traditional time-series econometric methods often appear incapable of capturing the true complexity of the multi-level interactions driving the price dynamics. By adopting a state-of-the-art second-order optimization algorithm, we train a Bayesian bilinear neural network with temporal attention. By addressing the use of predictive distributions to analyze errors and uncertainties associated with the estimated parameters and model forecasts, we thoroughly compare our Bayesian model with traditional ML alternatives.
