        1 - Modeling and Comparison of Fuzzy and Non-Fuzzy Multi-Objective Evolution Optimization Portfolios in Tehran Stock Exchange
        Mohammad Fallah Hadi Khajezadeh Dezfuli Hamed Nozari

        Selecting the optimal stock portfolio is one of the most important issues in the field of financial research, which tries to choose the optimal combination of assets in order to create maximum utility for the investor, Given that the return on securities in the real world is often vague and inaccurate, one of the most important investment challenges is uncertainty about the future. In this paper the problem of selecting and optimizing securities portfolios with different modeling goals has been solved and compared. The designed models have considered both the nature of the portfolio selection issue and the considerations considered by the shareholder in the portfolio selection. The uncertainty quality of the future return of a given portfolio is estimated using fuzzy LR numbers, while its return torques are measured using possibility theory. The most important purpose of this paper is to solve the problem and compare portfolio selection models with simultaneous optimization of two, three, and four objectives. For this purpose, the NSGA-II genetic algorithm is used and the mutation and intersection operators are designed specifically to generate possible solutions to the cardinality constraint of the problem. Finally, the efficiency and performance of the models in case of using fuzzy logic and not using it have been compared and it has been determined that the use of fuzzy logic and possibility theory leads to the formation of portfolios with higher performance and higher efficiency.

        2 - Resource management for the issue of selecting and scheduling a self-financing project portfolio in Project-oriented organizations
        Seyed Mahdi Mirkhorsandi Langaroudi Hossein Khosravi Alireza Davoodi Seyed Mojtaba Movahedifar

        Project-oriented organizations are one of the emerging organizational forms that are formed around projects and teams. These organizations have dynamic boundaries and fields of works, in which the number and size of projects of the organization are constantly changing. In this regard, the managers of these organizations are always faced with the issue of choosing the higher economic justification projects for their organizations, as well as, resource management (including resource leveling and resources allocation) for the selected projects. In this research, a mathematical model of renewable and non-renewable resource management for self-financing project-oriented organizations is presented. This means that financing of the selected projects within the organization is limited to the initial capital and the incomes of the completed projects. In this regard, the project portfolio theory is used to solve the problem of the selection and scheduling of the projects within the project-oriented organization considering the limitation of renewable and non-renewable resources, the existence of a prerequisite relationship between project activities, the time value of capital for financial resources and finally the application of reinvestment strategy. The multi-objective function maximizes the net present value of the investment as well as minimizes the amount of the idle renewable resources. The modeling is a mixed integer programming and after linearization of the model, the LP-metric method is used to solve the multi-objective function, and finally the results are examined on a numerical example.

        This paper develops a fuzzy portfolio selection problem that minimizes conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) and estimates CVaR by fuzzy credibility theory and also calculates expected return by fuzzy credibility mean. Using fuzzy techniques makes the model more precise and accurate due to uncertainty of financial data. The use of CVaR helps investors make better decisions because it indicates the size of loss. This study considers some constraints for model including liquidity, cardinality, minimum and maximum investment proportion. The liquidity constraint is measured by turnover of each asset as a trapezoidal fuzzy number. The liquidity constraint converts to a linear constraint by using fuzzy credibility theory. Using CVaR as a risk measurement and efficient constraints makes the model appropriate and adequate for portfolio selection. Finally, a numerical example is provided by 10 stocks chosen from Tehran Stock Exchange Market in 2015 and it shows the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed model Manuscript profile

        One of the most important challenges in the stock market for investors is selecting Portfolio. This study by considering the financial ratios as evaluating indicators tries to determine appropriate model for investment decisions in stocks. In this study, the combination of respectively models, linear regression, multi attribute decision making and linear programming were used to forecast the future of financial ratio trends, ranking companies and asset allocation. In the first step of study, after selecting 17 financial ratios and indicators as variables of the hybrid model, their values from the first quarter of 2007 to the first quarter of 2015 was calculated for companies included in the sample. Then by using the moving average with exogenous inputs and Auto Regressive Moving Average with exogenous input, these variables were predicted for the studied period (second quarter 2015). In the next step, we used Shannon entropy to determine the weight of indexes and the grey relational analysis for ranking companies. Finally, by using a linear programming model, a model was developed to select the optimal portfolio. According to this model, a portfolio of stocks formed and by using the Sharp ratio, its performance was compared with the overall index and the top 50 index. The results showed that the hybrid model has had a better performance than the overall index and the top 50 index, in the period of the study. Manuscript profile

        Deciding about portfolio selection and composition are the main challenge ofinvestment institutions. The nature of analysis and effective criteria in industry andcompany are different. They should rank the industry and companies options with regardto multiple and conflict criteria that they have different weights and priorities. This articleseeks to provide two-stage approach for stock selection and portfolio composition. Weenriched promethee (compensatory MCDM method) by weight of criteria. Then we usedit in intended approach. The expert opinions and objective data used to criteria ranking.An ANP was used to determining weight of criteria that merge in promethee method.After designing we tried to validate our approach with real data. The results show wehave 7% (simple mode) and 11% (enriched mode) return more than actual performance.Using of Porter five forces analysis for indentifying and verify industry criteria, toinclude some indices from corporate governance and technical analysis, weighting thecriteria and integrate them in the promethee are our research novelty.

        Portfolio selection is an important problem in area of finance. Researchers have always tried to work with a variety of methods and strategies to achieve this important issue.In this research has been trying to present a new approach for portfolio selection with use of lower tail dependence and Extreme value theory.We show theoretically that lower tail dependence (χ), a measure of the probability that a portfolio will suffer large losses given that the market does, contains important information for risk-averse investors. We then estimate χ for a sample of stocks and show that it differs systematically from other risk measures including variance, semi-variance, skewness, kurtosis, beta, and coskewness. In out-of-sample tests, portfolios constructed to have low values of χ outperform the market index, and portfolios with high values of χ. Our results indicate that χ is conceptually important for risk-averse investors, differs substantially from other risk measures, and provides useful information for portfolio selection.

        The problem of portfolio optimization and stock selection is one of the major areas for financial investors in financial markets. In this paper, some of the challenges of simultaneously multi-objective portfolio optimization are addressed. Four different models are designed: a fuzzy multi-objective programming model has been used to consider the multi-criteria nature of stock selection and the uncertainty associated with the return on assets and a simple model for doing this. The models are designed in such a way that both the nature of the multiplicity of the problem of portfolio selection is considered and the considerations of the investor in the choice of portfolios are involved. After designing the evolutionary 3 and 4 objective models of portfolio optimization, multi-objective evolutionary algorithm NSGA-II was used to solve this models. Concretely, it optimizes return, the downside-risk, skewness and the Kurtosis of a given daily returns, taking into account budget, and investor constraints. Because of the NP-HARD nature of the above models, the NSGA-II proprietary algorithm was coded in the MATLAB, and after solving each model and extracting the Pareto frontier, the best portfolio on the Pareto front was selected based on the maximum Sortino ratio. Finally, the results of the obtained portfolios in both fuzzy and non-phase conditions were compared according to the trainer's ratio, and it was determined that the use of fuzzy logic in quadratic evolutionary algorithms, compared to a situation where fuzzy logic is not used in the design and use of these algorithms., Creates more favorable results.

        Portfolio selection process is one of the problems that have been attracted many researchers. Various criteria that have been applied in this case have changed over time and this situation makes necessary the using of appropriate tools to support investment decisions. The purpose of this research is modeling and solving of portfolio selection problem. On the other hand, in some cases of a portfolio optimization, due to largeness of problem size, the problem would be impossible to solve in a reasonable time. In such situation, applying the methods that reduce the scale of problem can be useful. In current paper a Dantzig-Wolfe algorithm is used to solve the problem in which, after decomposing the basic problem into several sub problems and solving them, individually, the obtained results are aggregated. The results of applying this method showed its efficiency in solving the large-scale problems show.   Manuscript profile

        Markovitz's risk-taking model is to select stocks based on historical asset data. In addition to the impact of historical returns, there are many other critical factors that directly or indirectly affect the stock market. The present study first uses the Fuzzy Delphi method to identify critical factors and ultimately considers factors with low correlation coefficients. Critical factors and historical data were used to adapt Dempestor-Schafer evidence theory for stock rankings. Then, in the sampling model, stocks with a higher rank are proposed. Sampling was carried out using stock held on Tehran Stock Exchange and simulated by optimization of colonization of ant. The performance of the results is satisfactory in comparison with the recent performance of assets. Manuscript profile

        Abstract Network analysis is one of the methods of attention of analysts to analyze complex relationships in data in an intuitive way. One of the applications of network analysis is illustrating the relationships between different classes of assets. Identifying stock market dynamics is essential for actors, investors, and financial policymakers. The stock market is considered a complex system that shows its complex dynamics. The complexity of the stock market can have several reasons that the interdependence of stocks can be one of the most prominent of these factors. One of the most important concerns of people in the capital market is finding a way to present and analyze stock data of different companies. There are different companies in the stock market and portfolio managers and investors, in choosing the right stock portfolio, need to consider the best way to form a stock portfolio. This article discusses the formation of diverse and non-diverse portfolios through network theory. To conduct this research, the adjusted final price of 138 listed companies for the period 2017-01-01 to 2021-07-06, equivalent to 1648 trading days, has been used. To describe the effect between stocks, the Adjacency Matrix is used and using the optimal threshold, diverse and non-diverse portfolios are obtained. We implement the results of selected stocks for the portfolio using the Hierarchical Risk Parity (HRP) approach based on clustering methods and the results with three methods of Minimum Variance (MVP), Uniform Distribution (UNIF), and Risk Parity (RP) for both in-sample and out-of-sample periods are compared for both diverse and non-diversified portfolios. Finally, the results have been compared using the four criteria of Sortino, Sharpe, Maximum DD, and Calmar. The results show the superiority of the non-diversified portfolio approach in market downturns and the superiority of the diversified portfolio approach in other periods. Manuscript profile

        In this paper, a multi objective multi stage stochastic model is proposed to portfolio selection. This model takes into account both the investment goal and risk control at each stage. A scenario generation method is proposed that acts as the basis of the portfolio management model. Scenarios for multistage portfolio management are proposed that use by consumption that rate of returns are not correlated during stages. One of the most important aspects of this model is using transaction cost in model and providing this ability that investors could add or withdrawal cash during time. In the end some numerical example are illustrated and model effectiveness proved. As is presented using stochastic programming with recourse and combination of this model with scenario generation model provides this possibility for investors to plan their medium and short term investing. As can be seen result of the model proved effectiveness of the model in financial markets. As result presented having such tool that investor could adjust his or her portfolio during time according to targets such as maximizing rate of return and minimizing risk of his or her decisions could bring powerful superiority in competitive financial markets.

        The purpose of portfolio optimization is to select an optimal combination of financial assets, which should be a guide for investors to achieve the highest returns against the lowest possible risk. On the other hand, one of the key factors in portfolio optimization decisions is related to predict the stock prices. To do this, classical nonlinear mathematical and intelligent models such as regression are commonly used. In the present study, a nonlinear model of support vector regression with multiple outputs is applied to reduce the prediction errors. To show the effectiveness of the proposed model, the data of S & P500 index companies in the period 12/09/2016 to 02/08/2021 is used. The results show that the selection of a portfolio based on prediction using multiple vector backup regression due to considering the relationships between outputs simultaneously in terms of Sharp criteria has a better performance than the selection of portfolio based on prediction using regression method.

        Special mathematical techniques have been developed in order to analyze conflict-competition situations. Game theory provides a formal analytical framework with a set of mathematical tools to study the complex intersections among rational players (Osborne, 2004). Several approaches have been produced to the Portfolio selection problem, which became popular among researchers with the article of Harry M. Markowitz, published in Journal of finance in 1952, which occupies an essential place in the literature. Canonical Coalition Game Theory is among these approaches. In this paper the optimality of a portfolio partnership which will be created by each player’s strategies (stocks) with identical targets but different Beta capabilities will be examined first with a zero-sum game and then with establishing a coalition among different Beta groups(players). The obtained optimal gain will be distributed to each stock using Shapley vector. As a result the performance of the model’s portfolio was positive and better than market performance which resulted negative return during testing period. Manuscript profile

        risk & return are two main factors that affect financial decisions. The trade off between risk & return create different investment strategies. In other words investment decisions are all based on risk & return. In this research we used multiperiod selection method in order to maximize investors utility. In this model we used not only variance but also higher order moment –skewness- for optimization. For emprical test of the model we used return of first 50 companies stored by market capitalization in tehran stock exchange during 1386-1395. We used skewness & transaction cost to introduce a moltipriod model in asset allocation to minimize variance of investors utility. Comparing the result of this model with markowitz model & simpel model considering investor preferences shows that based on performance evaluation criteria, the suggested model perform much better than the two other.

        In choosing the optimal portfolio, we must consider various criteria, some of which are determined by the nature of the optimization and some are determined by the investor's desire. Therefore, in this paper, multi-objective optimization models are designed and solved in MATLAB software environment. These models are designed in such a way that both the nature of the portfolio optimization, the considerations of the investor and the uncertain nature of the future return on assets, are taken into account. After designing the models in fuzzy and non-fuzzy (simple) conditions, due to their NP-HARD nature, a dedicated NSGA-II algorithm was used to solve it. After solving the models, the best portfolio from attained Pareto frontier, based on the Sortino ratio, be chosen. After that all of the obtained portfolios are compared according to the Treyner ratio. The results of statistical tests clearly show that the proposed models have a high power in choosing portfolios with maximum returns and a minimum risk. The results also indicate that that the designed models, with use of fuzzy logic in quadratic models creates more favorable results than simple models without using possibility theory and fuzzy logic.

        The several heuristic algorithms have been proposed for portfolio selection. One of these algorithms is based on spin glasses that have local searching and parallel processing properties. Because of the spin glass algorithms are actually based on Monte Carlo simulation such as simulated annealing (SA) and have low convergence speed against other method, yet composing with other methods such as Learning Automata (LA) and genetic algorithms have been considered. In this paper, one of the composing methods based on SA and Exteremal Optimization (EO) has been proposed, this algorithm select and change the low order spins with higher probability and take the state of all spins into the better situation. After a sufficient number of steps, the system reaches a highly correlated that almost all species have reached fitness above a certain threshold. This co-evolutionary activity gives rise to chain reactions and every fluctuation that rearrange major parts of the system, potentially making any configuration accessible. Therefore any fluctuations allow escaping from local minima and efficiently explore the configuration space. The experimental results show this method is powerful paradigm for finding ground state of spin glass and better than other methods such as SA and LA for solving portfolio selection problem.

        Z-numbers theory was proposed in 2011 by Lotfy Zadeh. This theory describe the uncertainty of information where any z-number is displayed by a pair of fuzzy number. Because of the uncertainty in the financial markets, this theory can be used in the investment portfolio selection. As the first component of z-number is the fuzzy asset return and the second component is reliability of prediction of first component. We can use value at risk criterion for increasing efficiency of investment portfolio selection model. Due to consideration the uncertainty in asset returns and using value at risk, this model is an appropriate model for investment portfolio selection. The advantage of this method compared to the conventional fuzzy method is consideration uncertainty of expert knowledge and allocation reliability to their prediction of fuzzy parameter. Finally, we provide a numerical example from Tehran stock market. Manuscript profile

        Nowadays, due to the rise of turnover and pace of trading in financial markets, accelerating of analysis and making decision is unavoidable. Humans are unable to analyze big data quickly without behavioral biases. Hence, financial markets tend to apply algorithmic trading in which some techniques like data mining and machine learning are notable. Online Portfolio Selection (OLPS) is one of the most modern techniques in algorithmic trading. OLPS allocates capital to a number of stocks and updates portfolio at the beginning of each period by some techniques. Actually, individual has no role in portfolio selection and the algorithm determines the way of investing in each period. In this article, an algorithm which follows pattern matching principle has been introduced. In pattern matching principle, the portfolio is selected based on identical historical patterns and in this article these patterns are found by spectral clustering in data mining. At the end of article, there is a numerical example which uses the most 20 active stocks in New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) data and its results has been compared with other algorithms in this topic.

         An investor Constant relative risk aversion. pursues two goals of expected utility increases and reduces expected portfolio liquidity expectations. In the current study, the Constant relative risk aversion. utility using actual portfolio fluctuations, real asymmetry, real elongation of graphs and non-liquidity The portfolios were measured using the non-liquidity rate. Therefore, it is possible to directly select the options of the investor in the two-dimensional expected utility / liquidity space. This research was analyzed by using high frequency data on a set of 40 shares of Tehran Stock Exchange from 2011 to 2017 using MATLAB software and time retrieval methods were used for daily synchronization of transactions. Considering the expected returns of the portfolio and the expected liquidity over the minimum variance and the same weighted portfolio, the power coverage of this model is examined. The results show that in the different risk-incompatible levels, the expected liquidity of the expected portfolio is highly competitive and seems appropriate in terms of usefulness, liquidity, and expected utility, relative to the benchmark.
