Finance has been one of the most active domains with increasingly bigger data, faster innovations, and more prosperous applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science, including algorithmic trading, cryptocurrency, blockchains, P2P lending, digital and mobile payments, digital assets, crowdfunding, robo-advising, and regtech transformation. AI and data science are driving new-generation financial technology (FinTech), which profoundly disrupts existing theories of money, investment, credit, market, and regulation and empowers new-generation financial innovations, products, services, operations, processes, and ecosystems. This special issue on AI and FinTech will collect the latest advancements in FinTech driven by advanced AI and data science that model complex interactions and relations, and their dynamics and impact on big financial data analytics and complex financial behaviors across financial markets, products, systems, and networks, as well as enable smart financial innovations, services, markets, operations, processes, products, and regulation and risk management.
Scope of Interest:
The special issue will solicit the recent theoretical and practical advancements in AI and FinTech including:
- Data fusion and digital gene construction in big financial systems and data
- Representation learning of complex financial and socio-economic problems and networks
- Modeling complex relations, dependencies, interactions, and networking in finance
- Modeling regional and global financial activities, behaviors, events, and their impact and risk
- Cross-market, product, indicator, platform and network modelling, hologram and risk analysis
