Application of Machine Learning in Predicting Stock Market Trends

Project Abstract

The stock market is a dynamic and complex system that is influenced by various factors, making it challenging for investors to predict trends accurately. Traditional methods of analysis often fall short in capturing the intricate patterns and relationships within the market. In recent years, machine learning techniques have emerged as a powerful tool for analyzing large datasets and uncovering hidden patterns that can aid in predicting stock market trends. This research project aims to explore the application of machine learning in predicting stock market trends and evaluate its effectiveness in improving forecasting accuracy.
