1. SESL Meeting / Presentation April 2003 Takenori Kamo

2. Currently, working on.... Revising the paper, “Global Stock Index Forecasting Using Multiple Generalized Regression Neural Networks with a Gating Network” for the Journal, “ Applied Intelligence”, Kluwer Academic Publishers. The revision is based on the suggestions and corrections by the reviewers and referees.

3. Suggestions and Correction No reference of Radial Basis Function (RBF), but it mentioned in Section 3. Do Not Believe the results based on only 3 months of data. Need to see out-of- sample results for at least 1 year. Need more than one learning model (GRNN)

4. To fulfill these suggestions Data/results Expanded from 3 months to 3 years. New learning models are added –Backpropagation –Recurrent Networks Re-simulate and get new results

5. Have completed... Data (indexes) of July 1997 Feb 2003 are collected/updated Backpropergation and GRNN are simulated and data are corrected. (3 models for each learning models).

6. Working on.... Recurrent Neural Network MATLAB programs and simulations Website: Financial Forecasting with Neural Networks
