Abstract

This paper presents a new artificial market simulation platform, PAMS: Platform for Artificial Market Simulations. PAMS is developed as a Python-based simulator that is easily integrated with deep learning and enabling various simulation that requires easy users' modification. In this paper, we demonstrate PAMS effectiveness through a study using agents predicting future prices by deep learning.
