arXiv:2607. 22491v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Volatility forecasting is dominated by persistence and measurement noise, leaving limited residual structure for nonlinear models to exploit.
arXiv:2608. 01599v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Volatility forecasts are commonly evaluated with aggregate accuracy metrics such as RMSE and MAE, but these metrics can hide conditional failures that matter for risk management.
arXiv:2606. 03184v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Financial forecasting is difficult due to low signal-to-noise ratios, latent factors, heavy tails, regime shifts, and jumps.
arXiv:2608. 12251v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Financial volatility is regime dependent, yet incorporating regime information into neural networks can also destabilize training.
arXiv:2603. 09789v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Accurate financial volatility forecasting is crucial but challenged by the non-linear, highly correlated nature of market data.
arXiv:2607. 24065v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this study, we developed and evaluated four conditional energy-based forecasting architectures: a classical Gaussian-Bernoulli CRBM, a hybrid quantum-classical QCRBM, a full-register QQRBM, and a lag-feature QFeatureQRBM with complete derivations of their conditional distributions, Contrastive-Divergence gradients, and hybrid training, bridging the energy-based formulation and the implementation-level quantum computation.
The paper presents a reproducible study of multi‑horizon forecasting on the Lomnicky Stit neutron monitor (LMKS) time series. It evaluates a range of models—from simple seasonal baselines to modern deep sequence models and quantum‑inspired architectures such as QiLSTM and QiKAN—using MAE and RMSE metrics. Results show that the quantum‑inspired KAN variant (QiKAN) achieves the lowest aggregate error, while the simple Seasonal Naive baseline remains highly competitive, indicating that strong seasonal or low‑dimensional functional priors can rival more complex models for highly periodic scientific data.
UQ-LOB is a lightweight, encoder‑agnostic module that adds uncertainty quantification to any pretrained limit order book (LOB) encoder. It offers two variants: UQ‑regression, which outputs a calibrated Gaussian over future tick displacement, and UQ‑classification, which outputs a categorical distribution over down/up/stationary. On 5.2 billion LOB events across seven cryptocurrency assets, UQ‑regression achieves near‑nominal 68 % interval coverage, and selecting the top 10 % most confident predictions boosts directional macro F1 by 0.11–0.15 for regression and 0.05–0.11 for classification, reaching F1 scores of 0.88 (down) and 0.83 (up) at a 5‑second horizon.
arXiv:2509. 13374v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop and audit a history-aware financial path generator based on Denoising Levy Probabilistic Models (DLPMs) for conditional equity-index path generation.
arXiv:2606. 27688v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In financial forecasting, predictive performance depends not only on which model is trained, but also on how the trained model is deployed.
VertiFuseX is a hybrid LSTM architecture that fuses multi‑scale temporal representations at the penultimate layer, stacking features from LSTM, Bi‑LSTM, and St‑LSTM branches and a parallel DNN stream. On 15 years of global equity index data, it reduces MAPE by 30‑54% and improves MAE and RMSE by over 40% compared to LSTM baselines, outperforming seven state‑of‑the‑art models across 33 metric‑dataset comparisons. The model is lightweight (675k parameters, 2.6 MB footprint) with 1.5 ms/sample inference latency and demonstrates robust, interpretable forecasting with reduced drawdowns in algorithmic trading simulations.
arXiv:2510. 13634v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Quantum reservoir computing (QRC) offers a hardware-friendly approach to temporal learning, yet most studies target univariate signals and overlook near-term hardware constraints.
KiT is a K‑line Diffusion Transformer foundation model designed for financial time‑series forecasting. It reframes future prediction as conditional path generation via flow matching, producing ensembles of plausible OHLCV trajectories from a historical context window. Trained on billions of candlestick bars across multiple markets and timescales, KiT achieves superior RankIC scores compared to task‑specific forecasters and general time‑series models.
