投資組合優化

優化最終財富是否與優化凱利標準中的增長率對數相同?

  • March 25, 2021

可以使用直接的蠻力方法來找到最佳投資組合。

考慮簡單的遊戲。有一個有 55% 機率獲勝的有偏見的硬幣。模擬器作為一個人玩 100$ 玩 N = 1000 連續遊戲。模擬器嘗試所有可能的投注分數,並選擇最大贏的一個作為最佳投注分數

$$ \max_{fraction} W = \max_{fraction} \prod_{i=1..N}R_{i} $$

讓我擔心的是,正如維基百科所說,凱利標準優化了增長的對數,而這種蠻力模擬優化了最終的金額

凱利賭注大小是通過最大化財富對數的期望值來找到的,這相當於最大化期望的幾何增長率。

但是,我相信這是同一回事。凱利標準試圖優化平均增長率

$$ R_{average} = W^{1/n} = (\prod_{i = 1..n}R_{i})^{1/n} = {1\over n} \sum_{i = 1..n}log(R_{i}) $$

所以,蠻力和凱利的區別是

$$ \max_{fraction} W \space \space \space \space \space vs. \space \space \space \max_{fraction} R_{average} $$

但是,應該是一樣的吧?要優化的參數(投注分數) $ W^{1/n} $ 應該和優化一樣 $ W $ .

凱利解決方案

$$ fraction = {p(b+1)-1 \over b} = {0.55(1+1) - 1 \over 1} = 0.1 $$

模擬的解是 0.11

編碼

結果

risky play with 0.9 fraction won 0
safe play with 0.05 fraction won 5756.17
optimal play with 0.11 fraction won 27601.98

我想我知道為什麼首選對數。它在計算上更加穩定,並且不會以指數增長溢出數字。並且對數比原始增長更平滑,更容易使用。

正如你所懷疑的,你有一個錯誤。你說:

$$ R_{average} = W^{1/n} = (\prod_{i = 1..n}R_{i})^{1/n} = {1\over n} \sum_{i = 1..n}log(R_{i}). $$

請注意,您記錄了日誌並保留了等式符號。你真正的意思是

$$ \log R_{average} = {1\over n} \sum_{i = 1..n}log(R_{i}). $$ 所以你並沒有真正比較

$$ \max_{f} W \space \space \space \space \space vs. \space \space \space \max_{f} R_{average}, $$

反而 $$ \max_{f} W \space \space \space \space \space vs. \space \space \space \max_{f} \log R_{average}= \frac 1 n \max_{f} \log W. $$

最後,讓你感到困惑的是

但是,應該是一樣的吧?要優化的參數(投注分數) $ W^{1/n} $ 應該和優化一樣 $ W $ .

你看, $ \text{argmax}_f W \neq \text{argmax}_f \log W $ 在一般情況下(以及在凱利的情況下)。
