Stock volatility as an anomalous diffusion process by Rubén V. Arévalo, J. Alberto Conejero, Òscar Garibo-i-Orts, Alfred Peris

“…Our architecture combines convolutional and recurrent neural networks (bidirectional long short-term memory units). Our model computes the diffusion exponent of a financial time series to measure its volatility and it categorizes market movements into five diffusion models: annealed transit time motion (ATTM), continuous time random walk (CTRW), fractional Brownian motion (FBM), Lévy walk (LW), and scaled Brownian motion (SBM).Our findings suggest that the diffusion exponent derived from anomalous diffusion processes provides insightful and novel perspectives on stock market volatility. …”
