Hi Marco, Have you got any update about this replicating this? I find this work very interesting for the probability to apply the method to nucleosynthesis network calculation. Look forward to hearing more from you. Yonglin Zhu Ph.D. Candidate

Hi Yonglin,

Not really as I am confident that the authors have made a mistake (probably used the WT on the entire time-series, hence peaking into the future). That said, I do think that parts of the paper makes sense for other applications, it's just not feasible to create those returns on daily S&P prices.

PS. have a look at this comment from a user on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/StockMarket/comments/cr9ncs/ive_reproduced_130_research_papers_about/

He mentions this paper:

"The most frustrating paper:

I have true hate for the authors of this paper: "A deep learning framework for financial time series using stacked autoencoders and long-short term memory". Probably the most complex AND vague in terms of methodology and after weeks trying to reproduce their results (and failing) I figured out that they were leaking future data into their training set (this also happens more than you'd think)."

All the best, Marco
