Lesson 1: How Machine Learning is used at a hedge fund
- Overview of use and backtesting
- Out of sample
- Roll forward cross validation
- Supervised ML
- Use: Regression
- Use: Classification
- Model type: Parametric
- Model type: Instance-based
- Reinforcement Learning
- Use: Find a policy
- Overview: LinReg, KNN, Decision Trees, Q-Learning
Lesson 2: Q-Learning and Dyna
- Long/short
Lesson 3: Time series prediction as an ML problem
[note: need to create fake stock data that has embedded patterns]
Lesson 4: Learner APIs
Lesson 5: Linear regression
Lesson 6: KNN
Lesson 7: Assessing a learning algorithm
- Now that we have two, (linreg & KNN), let's compare them
- RMS error
- Scatterplot predict vs actual
- Corrcoef
