Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of a hybrid approach with the time delay neural networks (TDNNs) and the genetic algorithms (GAs) in detecting temporal patterns for stock market prediction tasks. Since TDNN is a multi-layer, feed-forward network whose hidden neurons and output neurons are replicated across time, it has one more estimate of time delays in addition to a number of control variables of the artificial neural network (ANN) design. To estimate these many aspects of the TDNN design, a general method based on trial and error along with various heuristics or statistical techniques is proposed. However, for the reason that determining time delays or network architectural factors in a stand-alone mode doesn't guarantee the illuminating improvement of the performance for building the TDNN models, we apply GAs to support optimization of time delays and network architectural factors simultaneously for the TDNN model. The results show that the accuracy of the integrated approach proposed for this study is higher than that of the standard TDNN and the recurrent neural networks (RNNs).
