New UQ-LOB module enhances AI trading forecasts with uncertainty quantification

Researchers have developed UQ-LOB, a novel uncertainty quantification module designed to enhance deep learning models for limit order book (LOB) mid-price forecasting. This module attaches to existing LOB encoders and provides calibrated predictions with a scalar confidence score, allowing for selective prediction based on forecast reliability. Tested on billions of LOB events across seven cryptocurrency assets, UQ-LOB demonstrated improved directional accuracy, particularly when focusing on the most confident predictions, achieving a directional F1 score of up to 0.88 at a 5-second horizon.

    UQ-LOB: Uncertainty-Aware Limit Order Book Mid-Price Forecasting

    arXiv:2609.31491v2 Announce Type: new Abstract: Forecasting short-horizon mid-price movements from limit order book (LOB) data is central to algorithmic trading, yet most deep LOB forecasters are point predictors: they output a direction or a displacement, but never indicate whic…
