Abstract

Recently, many studies have been conducted to increase the accuracy of stock price prediction by analyzing candlestick charts using artificial intelligence techniques. However, these studies failed to consider the time-series characteristics of candlestick charts and to take into account the emotional state of market participants in data learning for stock price prediction. In order to overcome these limitations, this study produced input data by combining volatility index and candlestick charts to consider the emotional state of market participants, and used the data as input for a new method proposed on the basis of combining variantion autoencoder (VAE) and attention mechanisms for considering the time-series characteristics of candlestick chart. Fifty firms were randomly selected from the S&P 500 index and their stock prices were predicted to evaluate the performance of the method compared with existing ones such as convolutional neural network (CNN) or long-short term memory (LSTM). The results indicated the method proposed in this study showed superior performance compared to the existing ones. This study implied that the accuracy of stock price prediction could be improved by considering the emotional state of market participants and the time-series characteristics of the candlestick chart.

최근 인공지능 기법을 활용하여 캔들스틱 차트를 분석함으로써 주식가격 예측의 정확성을 높이고자 하는 다양한 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 그러나 이러한 연구들은 주식가격 예측을 위한 학습에 있어 캔들스틱 차트의 시계열적 특성을 고려하지 못한다는 점과 시장 참여자들의 감정 상태를 고려하지 못한다는 점 등이 문제로 지적되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 시장 참여자들의 감정상태를 반영하기 위해 변동성지수(VIX: volatility index) 차트를 캔들스틱 차트와 함께 고려하여 학습시키고 이를 변이형 오토인코더(VAE: variational auto encoder)와 어텐션 메커니즘(attention mechanisms)을 결합한 새로운 방법으로 분석하여 캔들스틱 차트의 시계열적 특성을 고려함으로써 기존 연구의 한계를 극복하고자 한다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방법의 성능 비교를 위해 S&P 500 기업 가운데 50개를 임의로 추출하여 제안한 방법을 통해 이들의 주식가격을 예측하고 이를 합성곱 신경망(CNN: convolutional neural network) 또는 장단기메모리(LSTM: long-short term memory) 등과 같은 기존 방법들과 비교하였다. 비교 결과 기존 방법들에 비해 본 연구에서 제안한 방법이 더 우수한 성능을 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 시장 참여자들의 감정 상태와 캔들스틱 차트의 시계열적 특성을 고려함으로써 주식 가격 예측의 정확성을 높였다는 점에서 그 의의가 있다.
