A convolutional framework for detecting event-driven dynamics in energy price series

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces a convolutional neural network framework for detecting event-driven dynamics in univariate time‑series windows, showing that it can represent classifiers based on range, maximum drawup, maximum drawdown, and slope change, and can uniformly approximate realised volatility and autoregressive explosiveness. It provides error bounds for representative rules in finite samples and an oracle inequality for learning across them, with simulations indicating that the model matches or outperforms individual‑statistic classifiers as training data increases. In an application to six daily energy price series, a hierarchical CNN identifies event windows and families, correctly detecting geopolitical dynamics around the 2026 Iran war and a natural gas spike linked to weather without retraining on post‑February 2026 data.

Deep Learning Based on Generative Adversarial and Convolutional Neural Networks for Financial Time Series Predictions

The paper proposes a hybrid generative adversarial network (GAN) that combines a bi-directional LSTM and a CNN (Bi‑LSTM‑CNN) to generate synthetic financial data aligned with real market data. By preserving stock trend features, the model predicts future stock price movements across multiple markets (TSX, SHCOMP, S&P 500). Experiments show that this hybrid approach outperforms existing machine‑learning prototypes, and the study highlights gaps between investors and technical researchers.

Deep Learning for Cross-Border Electricity Price Forecasting: A Comparative Study

The paper presents a comparative study of six deep learning models—state-space, MLP, RNN, and Transformer-based architectures—for cross-border electricity price forecasting using publicly available data. It focuses on generalization across markets and evaluates performance under low-data target-market conditions (zero-shot, one-shot, few-shot) with a standardized dataset for the Germany‑Luxembourg bidding zone in 2024. Results show that N‑HiTS and NBEATSx perform competitively in limited‑data scenarios, while transformer models achieve comparable accuracy but require more adaptation and tuning, and that careful feature selection and hyperparameter tuning improve performance.
