Abstract

This paper presents a new artificial market simulation platform, PAMS: Platform for Artificial Market Simulations. PAMS is developed as a Python-based simulator that is easily integrated with deep learning and enabling various simulation that requires easy users’ modification. In this paper, we demonstrate PAMS effectiveness through a study using agents predicting future prices by deep learning.

Keywords: artificial market simulation, agent-based modeling, deep learning, platform development, financial simulation, General (Market Microstructure)

Complexity vs Empirical Score

• Math Complexity: 2.0/10
• Empirical Rigor: 3.0/10
• Quadrant: Philosophers
• Why: The paper presents a simulation platform (PAMS) with minimal advanced mathematical derivations, focusing instead on software architecture and integration with deep learning. Empirical rigor is low as the work centers on platform introduction and a demonstration study rather than extensive backtesting with real-world data or statistical performance metrics.
