All of the code is organized into folders. For example, Chapter04.
The code will look like the following:
import numpy as np
from scipy.stats import norm
t = 1.0 # year
K = 105 # Strike price
r = 0.05 # Riskless short rate
sigma = 0.25 # Volatility (stdev)
S0 = 100 # Present price
- Page 160 (Chapter 6): Balanced Accuracy, or ROC-AUC score should be Balanced Accuracy, and ROC-AUC score
- Page 161 (Chapter 6): AUC being equivalent to Balanced Accuracy is a simplification over binary outcome which is not the case when using probabilistic outcome (
.predict_proba()) for classification.
Following is what you need for this book: This book is for financial practitioners, quantitative analysts, or developers; looking to bring the power of quantum computing to their organizations. This is an essential resource written for finance professionals, who want to harness the power of quantum computers for solving real-world financial problems. A basic understanding of Python, calculus, linear algebra, and quantum computing is a prerequisite.
