Using AI to Identify Undervalued Stocks for Investment
Abstract
The goal of this project is to use artificial intelligence (AI) to develop a predictive model that will help find cheap stocks to invest in. The methodology determines if companies are undervalued or not by examining financial metrics including the Price-to-Earnings (PE), Price-to-Book (PB), Debt-to-Equity (DE), and Earnings Per Share (EPS) growth. Using Keras and TensorFlow, the project uses a neural network-based methodology. It assesses model performance using a variety of metrics, including accuracy, ROC-AUC score, and cross-validation.

Relevance and Originality
The project addresses a significant need in the investment sector by utilizing artificial intelligence to identify undervalued stocks, which is crucial for investors seeking profitable opportunities. The focus on financial metrics such as PE, PB, DE, and EPS growth adds relevance to the approach. However, highlighting any novel aspects of the model or unique methodologies would enhance the originality of the project.
Methodology
The methodology clearly outlines the use of financial metrics to assess whether companies are undervalued. However, it would benefit from more detailed information on the dataset, including its size, source, and how the financial metrics are calculated or sourced. Additionally, specifying the structure of the neural network, including the number of layers and activation functions, would provide a clearer understanding of the model being developed.
Validity & Reliability
The project mentions assessing model performance using various metrics like accuracy and ROC-AUC score, which is commendable. To strengthen the claims of validity and reliability, it should detail the validation techniques employed, such as the specifics of cross-validation and how potential overfitting is addressed. Discussing the significance of these metrics in the context of stock prediction would also be beneficial.
Clarity and Structure
The text is generally clear but could benefit from a more structured format. Using headings or bullet points to separate the goal, methodology, and performance assessment would enhance readability. Additionally, simplifying some technical jargon could make the content more accessible to a broader audience, including those unfamiliar with machine learning.
Result Analysis
While the project outlines the use of various performance metrics, it would be valuable to include specific results or expected outcomes. Discussing how the predictive model performs in identifying undervalued stocks compared to traditional methods would provide context for its effectiveness. Furthermore, including potential implications for investors or the broader market could enhance the discussion on the significance of the model’s development.
