Abstract:
As an important part of the social economy, stock market plays an important role in economic development, and accurate prediction of stock price is important as it can lower the risk of investment decision-making. However, the task of predicting future stock price is very difficult. This difficulty arises from stocks with nonstationary behavior and without any explicit form. In this paper, we propose a novel bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory Network (BiLSTM) framework called evolutionary BiLSTM (EBiLSTM) for the prediction of stock price. In the framework, three independent BiLSTMs correspond to different objective functions and act as mutation individuals, then their respective losses for evolution are calculated, and finally, the optimal objective function is identified by the minimum of loss. Since BiLSTM is effective in the prediction of time series and the evolutionary framework can get an optimal solution for multiple objectives, their combination well adapts to the nonstationary behavior of stock prices. Experiments on several stock market indexes demonstrate that EBiLSTM can achieve better prediction performance than others without the evolutionary operator.
