Theses

Gene regulatory network (GRN) is a collection of regulators that interact with each other in the cell to govern the gene expression levels of mRNA and proteins. These regulators can either be DNA, RNA, protein and their complex. Transcriptional gene regulation is an important mechanisms in which an in-depth study can lead to various practical applications, and a greater understanding of how organisms control their cellular behavior. One of the most widely studied organisms in gene regulatory networks are the Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032.

Gene co-expression networks are of biological interests due to co-expressed genes which are …

Uusing The Kdj As A Trading Strategy On Biotech Companies, Shijie Zha

Theses

Mean Reversion is the most commonly used model in quantitative trading. This model is associated with several factors, like ma5 and ma10 line. These factors are the most significant in stock markets. However, the disadvantages of this model are lag and inaccuracy.

In this research, we get the historical and current stock data by web crawler, analyze the quantitative data and build a new model involved with the KDJ. Taking biotech companies marketed in the United States and B-share marketed in China as the research subjects, the result shows increased profits compared with the Mean Reversion model. It also shows …
