Abstract

Machine learning (ML) is changing virtually every aspect of our lives. Today ML algorithms accomplish tasks that until recently only expert humans could perform

Keywords: Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Algorithmic Trading, Predictive Analytics, Data Science, Equity

Complexity vs Empirical Score

• Math Complexity: 6.0/10
• Empirical Rigor: 4.0/10
• Quadrant: Lab Rats
• Why: The paper introduces advanced financial data structures and labeling techniques like Fractionally Differentiated Features, Triple Barrier Method, and Meta-Labeling, involving statistical estimation and optimization, yet the provided excerpt is conceptual lecture slides without executable code, backtests, or specific datasets, limiting its immediate empirical implementation.
