This thesis presents the use of neural networks in stock market price prediction, addressing the limitations of traditional statistical and econometric models, and by focusing on feedforward neural networks, recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, their effectiveness in forecasting stock prices is analyzed, while at the same time, a literature review highlights their advantages and challenges, including data quality and model interpretability.
In the experimental section, a neural network system is trained and tested on historical stock market data to assess its predictive performance, with the findings indicating that neural networks significantly enhance prediction accuracy by capturing complex, nonlinear relationships, ighlighting the contribution of this thesis to the application of advanced machine learning techniques in finance, while at the same time, it provides valuable insights for improving financial decision-making processes in the future.
