Stochastic calculus finds so extensive applications and enables us to analyze various phenomena affected by random factors, such as asset price movements, option pricing, risk assessment, and geopolitical or climate risks. Moreover, stochastic calculus's effectiveness extends beyond finance, with its use in physics, biology, engineering, and economics, where it helps describe and analyze systems influenced by random events. Its ability to handle stochastic processes makes it an invaluable resource for comprehending and navigating uncertain environments and investigating the panel of risks that affect and impact financial markets or supply chains in commodity one.
Another powerful tool for modeling risks is machine learning. Machine learning has emerged as a powerful tool for modeling complex (financial and or economic) systems and making data-driven decisions. By exploiting advanced algorithms, machine learning enables the analysis of vast datasets to identify patterns, forecast market trends, and manage risks. The capabilities of these models range from forecasting stock prices and optimizing investment portfolios to detecting fraudulent activities and assessing credit risk. Machine learning's ability to adapt to changing market conditions and handle non-linear relationships makes it indispensable in the ever-evolving world of finance but also all possible relationships and contagion on commodity markets, offering the potential to enhance decision-making, reduce errors, and unlock valuable insights from data.
The workshop primarily addresses the use of stochastic calculus, machine learning, or sophisticated econometric models to solve optimization problems associated with financial matters and explores their practical applications in finance and economics. But it is not limited to finance. Other modeling problems such as problems from economics, climate, epidemiology, physics, biology, and engineering are also addressed.
The workshop’s objective is to foster collaboration among scholars, including those from academia and industry, as well as graduate students. This research event provides participants with a platform to present their research findings and engage in discussions on the latest advancements in this field of study.
