About this position

I am thrilled to share that I have received a Mitacs Accelerate Grant in partnership with the Bank of Canada, in collaboration with Dr. Thibaut Duprey, who established the Bank’s Systemic Risk Analytics Division. In addition, this project, along with my other related research initiatives, have been awarded $405,981 in CPU, GPU, and data resources by the Digital Research Alliance of Canada.

These grants will support my PhD student and SSHRC Doctoral Fellow, Brett Barnes, during his 6-month visit to the Bank of Canada, where he will develop state-of-the-art NLP models to extract economic signals from English and French Canadian news. These signals will be key inputs into our broader research on multi-quantile deep learning models with feature engineering, aimed at improving the accuracy and interpretability of Canadian macro-financial tail risk forecasts. This broader project was previously funded by a SSHRC Partnership Engage Grant and will build on the multi-quantile neural network from my paper, “Quantile Machine Learning and the Cross-section of Stock Returns”, which will be presented at:
- The Wolfe Research 2nd Annual Canadian Quantitative and Macro Investment Conference (Toronto, September), and
- The Financial Management Association Conference (Vancouver, October).

?? PhD Opportunity:
If you're applying to PhD programs and are interested in financial machine learning with rich data and real-world applications, I am available to supervise several students for our fully funded PhD in Economics at the University of Guelph.
