evofin 2012 - 6th European event on evolutionary and natural computation in finance and economics

Areas of Interest and Contributions
evofin 2012 focuses primarily on the use of EC and related natural computing techniques in computational finance and economics. High quality paper submissions which demonstrate novelty in terms of methodology, application or both, are strongly encouraged. Applications of interest include (but are not limited to) algorithmic trading, forecasting financial time series, portfolio selection and management, pricing complex financial products, developing risk management systems, and financial engineering. Other applications of interest include artificial stock markets and agent-based models of related social processes. Methodologies of interest include EC methodologies such as genetic programming, genetic algorithms and evolutionary strategies, as well as other natural computing methodologies such as particle swarm, foraging algorithms, artificial immune systems, hybrid systems, and multi-agent systems.
