Feature Selection
The standard normalization is done by computing the mean of the vector coordinates and
subtracting it from all coordinates
Piecewise Normalization : split the sequence into windows, and perform normalization
(as described above) separately within each window.

Feature Selection
Principal Component Analysis : PCA maps vectors xn in a d-dimensional space (x1 , ..., xd)
onto vectors z in an M -dimensional space, where M < d.
PCA finds d orthonormal basis vectors ui , called also principal components, and
retains only a subset M < d of these principal components to represent the projections of
vectors x n into the lower-dimensional space.
Aggregation : based on the assumption that local fluctuation of the stock is not as important
as its global behavior, and therefore that we can replace a B ( B = 5, 10, 15 etc. ) day period
by the, average stock price during that time.
This decreases the dimensionality by a factor of B.
Bottom Up approach
Each observation starts in its own cluster, and pairs of clusters are merged as one moves up
the hierarchy.
A single partition (slice across the hierarchy) can then be taken at any level to give the
desired number of clusters.
Use of K means clustering algorithm to form a cluster of charts with high correlation
coefficient.
Trend analysis
For the clustered chart patterns, AprioriAll algorithm is used to find out frequent patterns which
match the given minimal support and confidence
After we have frequent patterns of sequences, we can predict the next possible chart pattern
according to the pattern the current chart belongs to.
Buy action If the stock trend is going up and average index return > p% after n days.
Sell action If the stock trend is going down and average index return < p% after n days.

and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI '12). IEEE Computer Society, Washington, DC, USA,

Preprocessing
Discretizing the time slot of stock market (9:00 AM to 5:00PM) into 1 minute
buckets.
8 identifiers used based on Price and volume of stock
Predict change in closing price of 1-min bucket given information of 7
identifiers prior to that minute.
Metric
Main aim to reduce the length of the table in order to reduce processing time
Based on the rule of association mining.
Example large scale companies stock in direct correlation with small scale
companies stock.
Statistical Arbitrage
