Monte Carlo simulation of SDEs using GANs

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have shown promising results when applied on partial differential equations and financial time series generation. We investigate if GANs can also be used to approximate one-dimensional Ito ^ stochastic differential equations (SDEs). We propose a scheme that approximates the path-wise conditional...

Pricing Options and Computing Implied Volatilities using Neural Networks

This paper proposes a data-driven approach, by means of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN), to value financial options and to calculate implied volatilities with the aim of accelerating the corresponding numerical methods. With ANNs being universal function approximators, this method trains an optimized ANN on a data set generated by a...
