Fathmat Samira Bakayoko’s Post

I’m currently participating in the Mountaintop Summer Experience at Lehigh University, where I am focused on applying advanced AI to financial data analysis. This project involves enhancing the categorization and predictive accuracy of SEC Form 8-K filings using large language models. Key aspects of the project include: • Developing a detailed categorization system for financial events to improve data extraction techniques. • Enhancing predictive models with AI, specifically through fine-tuning large language models, to better forecast market impacts from corporate events reported in 8-K filings. The skills and insights I’m gaining are directly applicable to quantitative analysis and asset management, areas where precision and advanced analytical capabilities are crucial. This experience is preparing me to tackle complex financial challenges and contribute effectively within quantitative and machine learning-focused teams in the finance sector. I am grateful for the guidance from my advisor Patrick Zoro, the collaborative spirit of my co-lead Nicholas Wagner and the help of Christopher Toh , Zijun Xia. I am excited about the potential of our work to advance the integration of AI in financial analysis. #LehighUniversity #MachineLearning #QuantitativeFinance #AssetManagement #AIInFinance
