Title Complexity in Financial Markets : Modeling Psychological Behavior in Agent-Based Models and Order Book Models Author(s) Cristelli, Matthieu Publication Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2014. Description XIX, 216 p : online resource Abstract Note Tools and methods from complex systems science can have a considerable impact on the way in which the quantitative assessment of economic and financial issues is approached, as discussed in this thesis. First????it is shown??that the self-organization of financial markets is a crucial factor in the understanding of their dynamics. In fact, using an agent-based approach, it is argued that financial markets??? stylized facts appear only in the self-organized state. Secondly, the thesis points out the potential of so-called big data science for financial market modeling, investigating how web-driven data can??yield a picture of??market activities:?? it has been found that web query volumes anticipate trade volumes. As a third achievement, the metrics developed here??for country competitiveness and product complexity is groundbreaking in??comparison to mainstream theories of economic growth and technological development. A key element in assessing the intangible variables determining the success of countries in the present globalized economy is represented by the diversification of the productive basket of countries. The comparison between the level of complexity of a country's productive system?? and economic indicators such as the GDP per capita discloses its hidden growth potential ISBN,Price 9783319007236 Keyword(s) 1.
