AI-Driven Anomaly Detection in Stock Markets: Testing Market Efficiency with Machine Learning
摘要
This paper investigates the potential of AI-driven anomaly detection models to identify exploitable inefficiencies in stock markets. Using Isolation Forest for anomaly detection and CatBoost regression for predictive modeling, we analyze a subset of S&P 500 stocks to assess whether machine learning techniques can uncover arbitrage opportunities. Our findings suggest that AI-based strategies can generate excess returns testing the market efficiency hypothesis.
