Deep Calibration of Market Simulations using Neural Density Estimators and Embedding Networks
The ability to construct a realistic simulator of financial exchanges, including reproducing the dynamics of the limit order book, can give insight into many counterfactual scenarios, such as a flash crash, a margin call, or changes in macroeconomic outlook. In recent years, agent-based models have been developed that reproduce many features of an exchange, as summarised by a set of stylised facts and statistics. However, the ability to calibrate simulators to a specific period of trading remains an open challenge. In this work, we develop a novel approach to the calibration of market simulators by leveraging recent advances in deep learning, specifically using neural density estimators and embedding networks. We demonstrate that our approach is able to correctly identify high probability parameter sets, both when applied to synthetic and historical data, and without reliance on manually selected or weighted ensembles of stylised facts.

Online monotone density estimation and log-optimal calibration
We study the problem of online monotone density estimation, where density estimators must be constructed in a predictable manner from sequentially observed data. We propose two online estimators: an online analogue of th…

The Mean Field Market Model Revisited
In this paper, we present an alternative perspective on the mean-field LIBOR market model introduced by Desmettre et al. in arXiv:2109.10779. Our novel approach embeds the mean-field model in a classical setup, but retai…
