Abstract

Prediction of financial time series has been at the centre of scientific research for a long time. Recently, there have been a wide range of possibilities to apply machine learning methods. Currently, there are so many scientific papers in the field of application of machine learning in finance that it is very difficult to find the way around. The presented paper aims to provide a fundamental overview of the current state of knowledge in this area, specifically within the area of corporate finance and business valuation, and to assist in orientation in the methods of machine learning those who have not yet encountered machine learning.
