This element introduces machine learning (ML) tools that can help asset managers discover economic and financial theories.
'The book's excellent introduction explains why machine learning techniques will benefit asset managers substantially and why traditional or classical linear techniques have limitations and are often inadequate in asset management. It makes a strong case that ML is not a black box but a set of data tools that enhance theory and improve data clarity. López de Prado focuses on seven complex problems or topics where applying new techniques developed by ML specialists will add value.' Mark S. Rzepczynski, Enterprising Investor
