2. Feature-Based Dynamic Pricing of Airline Ancillaries
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Airline ancillary revenue has increased substantially over the past years. Despite the increasing attention, its pricing models have mostly progressed slowly and remained simple. In this work we apply dynamic pricing models for the purpose of maximizing airline ancillary revenue. Our contributions in this thesis are threefold. READ MORE

3. Commodity Futures Pricing Via Machine Learning: An Empirical Approach
University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomiAbstract : The goal of this thesis is to use established methodologies in the field of machine learning in finance to extend the list of current applications to commodity futures, reviewing and refining the established empirical approaches to return forecasting and hyperparameter optimization. We thus investigate the out of sample predictive accuracy of tree-based machine learning (ML) techniques and neural networks applied to monthly commodity futures returns, relying on conventional regression and classification accuracy metrics.

4. Tacit collusion with deep multi-agent reinforcement learning
University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomiAbstract : Automatic pricing now attracts the attention of competition authorities following recent machine learning developments. In particular, previous research shows that the Q-learning algorithm can reach collusive outcomes despite receiving only minimal human intervention. READ MORE

5. Option Pricing on Levy Based Markets
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistikAbstract : The development of novel methods for accurate financial market modelling has always been a significant area in financial mathematics. Therefore, this master thesis examines the applicability of three Levy processes, known as CGMY, NIG and Meixner for pricing European call and put options. READ MORE
