Abstract

Traditionally, in the financial services industry, a large amount of financial analysts’ time is spent on knowledge discovery and extraction from different unstructured data sources, such as reports, research notes, SEC filings, earnings call transcripts, news etc. In addition to inefficiency, this manual information retrieval process can be prone to human error, subjectivity, and inconsistency. Recent advances in representation learning provide a reliable platform for mapping a large volume of unstructured data to a high dimensional vector space where similarities and differences between data points can be quantified and used for featurization, pattern recognition and information retrieval. In this work we demonstrate that by properly representing terms, documents and companies in the same informative vector space and applying a simple self-supervised learning framework, relevant companies and documents can be retrieved with a good level of accuracy given the topics of interest, even with no prior labeled data.
利用零点自监督学习从备选数据中检索信息
传统上,在金融服务行业中,大量金融分析师的时间花在从不同的非结构化数据源中发现和提取知识上,例如报告、研究笔记、SEC文件、财报电话会议记录、新闻等。除了效率低下之外,这种手动信息检索过程还容易出现人为错误、主观性和不一致性。表示学习的最新进展为将大量非结构化数据映射到高维向量空间提供了可靠的平台,在高维向量空间中,数据点之间的相似性和差异性可以被量化,并用于特征化、模式识别和信息检索。在这项工作中,我们证明,通过在相同的信息向量空间中适当地表示术语、文档和公司,并应用一个简单的自监督学习框架,即使没有事先标记的数据,也可以在给定感兴趣的主题的情况下以很高的准确性检索相关的公司和文档。
