Snow, D (2020). Machine Learning in Asset Management—Part 1: Portfolio Construction—Trading Strategies. The Journal of Financial Data Science, Winter 2020, 2 (1) 10-23.
This is the first in a series of articles dealing with machine learning in asset management. Asset management can be broken into the following tasks: (1) portfolio construction, (2) risk management, (3) capital management, (4) infrastructure and deployment, and (5) sales and marketing. This article focuses on portfolio construction using machine learning. Historically, algorithmic trading could be more narrowly defined as the automation of sell-side trade execution, but since the introduction of more advanced algorithms, the definition has grown to include idea generation, alpha factor design, asset allocation, position sizing, and the testing of strategies. Machine learning, from the vantage of a decision-making tool, can help in all these areas.

This paper investigates various machine learning trading and portfolio optimisation models and techniques. The notebooks to this paper are Python based. By last count there are about 15 distinct trading varieties and around 100 trading strategies. Code and data are made available where appropriate. The hope is that this paper will organically grow with future developments in machine learning and data processing techniques. All feedback, contributions and criticisms are highly encouraged.

Snow, D (2020). Machine Learning in Asset Management—Part 2: Portfolio Construction—Weight Optimization. The Journal of Financial Data Science, Spring 2020, 2 (1) 10-23.
This is the second in a series of articles dealing with machine learning in asset management. This article focuses on portfolio weighting using machine learning. Following from the previous article (Snow 2020), which looked at trading strategies, this article identifies different weight optimization methods for supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning frameworks. In total, seven submethods are summarized with the code made available for further exploration.
