Residual Learning Enhances AI Models for Asset Pricing

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new research paper proposes residual learning as a method to deepen neural network models for empirical asset pricing. This approach allows for more complex models while retaining the performance of shallower counterparts. The study found that deep residual models achieved a higher out-of-sample Sharpe ratio (2.07) compared to shallow models (1.92) and deep feedforward models (0.89), indicating that increased model depth provides significant economic value in asset pricing. AI

IMPACT This research suggests that deeper AI models, enabled by residual learning, can unlock greater economic value in financial markets.

    Residual Learning in Empirical Asset Pricing

    arXiv:2610.09613v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Shallow models are special cases of deep models, and deep models theoretically have the potential to outperform the shallow ones. However, the existing empirical asset pricing literature provides strong benchmarks for shallow mode…
