My submission to the G Research Financial Forecasting Competition of 2018

Primary LanguageJupyter Notebook

This repository contains my submission to the G Research Financial Forecasting Competition for which I was ranked 33 on the public leaderboard.

The notebooks document:

  • Exploratory data analysis
  • Feature preprocessing using methods such as tree-based discretisation, target encoding, and entity embeddings
  • Feature selection
  • Model training (XGboost, LightGBM, Neural Networks)
  • Hyperparameter tuning
  • Training of entity embeddings of the Stock feature using Keras

The library contains some helper functions for:

  • Feature preprocessing
  • Model training and validation
  • Entity embeddings
