Financial Time Series Prediction Based on BP Neural Network

Article Preview

Abstract:

BP neural network is promising methods for the prediction of financial time series because it use a risk function consisting of the empirical error and a regularized term which is derived from the structural risk minimization principle. This study applies BP neural network to predicting the stock price index. In addition, this study examines the feasibility of applying BP neural network in financial forecasting. The experimental results show that BP neural network provides a promising alternative to stock market prediction.
