GPT-InvestAR
An AI model that leverages GPT embeddings and gradient boosting for stock ranking and investment portfolio optimization.
Overview
GPT-InvestAR combines the language understanding capabilities of GPT with traditional machine learning methods for stock selection. It uses GPT to generate embeddings from financial text such as annual reports and earnings calls, then feeds these embeddings into gradient-boosted tree models for stock ranking and portfolio construction. This hybrid approach bridges the gap between natural language understanding and quantitative finance.
