Integration of Wavelet Transform Convolution and Channel Attention with LSTM for Stock Price Prediction based Portfolio Allocation
Integration of Wavelet Transform Convolution and Channel Attention with LSTM for Stock Price Prediction based Portfolio Allocation ArXiv ID: 2507.01973 “View on arXiv” Authors: Junjie Guo Abstract Portfolio allocation via stock price prediction is inherently difficult due to the notoriously low signal-to-noise ratio of stock time series. This paper proposes a method by integrating wavelet transform convolution and channel attention with LSTM to implement stock price prediction based portfolio allocation. Stock time series data first are processed by wavelet transform convolution to reduce the noise. Processed features are then reconstructed by channel attention. LSTM is utilized to predict the stock price using the final processed features. We construct a portfolio consists of four stocks with trading signals predicted by model. Experiments are conducted by evaluating the return, Sharpe ratio and max drawdown performance. The results indicate that our method achieves robust performance even during period of post-pandemic downward market. ...
