This study uses the benchmark interest rate of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) to predict gold futures prices. For the predictions, we used the support vector machine (SVM) (a machine-learning model) and the long short-term memory (LSTM) deep-learning model. We found that the LSTM method is more accurate than the SVM method. Moreover, we applied the Boruta algorithm to demonstrate that the FOMC benchmark interest rates correlate with gold futures.

The concern of this paper is to provide learning opportunities to participate in the class of statistics with interest for the students who dislike mathematics and especially find difficulty in understanding statistics. The students were encouraged to arrange data collected in their daily life by the use of spreadsheet program and to interpret the result of data with graphs, so that they could have a great interest in statistics and make steady progress in their voluntary study. The further study to use computers in teaching mathematics should be continued and recommended in the rapid age of information and knowledge-based.

In this paper, we consider the Sparre Andersen risk model modified by the inclusion of interest on the surplus. By using the techniques of Cai and Dickson [Ins.: Math. Econ. 32(2003)], we give the functional and also the exponential type upper bounds for the tail probability of the deficit at ruin. Some special cases are also discussed.

학생들은 학교 수학교육을 통해 획득한 방법으로 여러 수학 문제를 풀고 있지만 문제 해결에 부족한 부분이 많으며, 제 7차 교육과정에서도 문제 만들기 활동을 통한 학습이 강조되고 있지만 수와 연산 영역에 치우쳐 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초등학교 수학 5-가 단계에 적합한 수학 문제 만들기 프로그램을 구안하여 적용한 후, 수학 학업 성취도와 태도 및 흥미도에 미치는 효과를 분석함으로써 학생들의 전반적인 수학 학습에 대한 학업 성취도와 태도 및 흥미도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방안을 모색하였다.

In this paper, using the Black-Scholes analysis, we will derive the partial differential equation of convertible bonds with both non-stochastic and stochastic interest rate. We also find numerical solutions of convertible bonds equation with known interest rate using the finite element method.

본 연구는 중학생들의 수학 흥미와 성취도의 종단적인 변화 양상을 알아보기 위해 경기교육종단연구 4-6차년도 데이터를 분석하였다. 다변량 성장혼합모형을 이용하여 분석한 결과 학생들의 수학 흥미와 성취도의 변화 양상에 이질적인 특성이 존재함을 확인하였고, 종단적인 변화 양상에 따라 학생들을 4개의 잠재집단으로 구분하였다. 학생들은 흥미와 성취도가 모두 낮은 저수준 유형, 모두 높은 고수준 유형, 학년이 올라감에 따라 증가하는 중수준-증가 유형, 학년이 올라감에 따라 감소하는 중수준-감소 유형으로 구분되었으며, 유형마다 흥미와 성취도의 종단적인 변화 양상이 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 다변량 성장혼합모형의 초기값과 기울기 사이의 상관관계를 분석한 결과, 수학 흥미와 성취도는 초기값뿐 아니라 변화율에 있어서도 서로 긍정적인 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 잠재집단의 결정에 영향을 미치는 요인을 개인, 수업방식, 가정 변인으로 나누어 그 영향력을 살펴보았고, 학생의 교육포부와 사교육 시간은 수학 흥미 및 성취도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치며 선행학습의 경우 그 정도에 따라 영향력이 달라지는 양상을 확인하였다. 학생이 인식한 수업방식의 경우, 교수자 중심 수업은 흥미와 성취도가 높은 집단에 속할 확률을 높이고, 학습자 중심 수업은 흥미와 성취도가 낮은 집단에 속할 확률을 높이는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 다변량 성장혼합모형을 통해 수학교육에서 흥미와 성취도를 비롯한 다양한 특성에 대한 학생들의 변화 양상을 분석하는 새로운 방법을 제시하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

It has been proposed since modern times that we need to consult the history of mathematics in teaching mathematics, and some modifications of this principle were made recently by Lakatos, Freudenthal, and Brousseau. It may be necessary to have a direction which we consult when modifying the history of mathematics for students. In this article, we analyse the elements of the cognitive interest in Hamilton's discovery of the quaternions and in the history of discovery of imaginary numbers, and we investigate the effects of these elements on attention of the students of nowadays. These works may give a direction to the historic-genetic principle in teaching mathematics.

Although, in general, the random fluctuation of interest rates gives a limited impact on portfolio optimization, their stochastic nature may exert a significant influence on the process of selecting the proportions of various assets to be held in a given portfolio when the stochastic volatility of risky assets is considered. The stochastic volatility covers a variety of known models to fit in with diverse economic environments. In this paper, an optimal strategy for portfolio selection as well as the smoothness properties of the relevant value function are studied with the dynamic programming method under a market model of both stochastic volatility and stochastic interest rates.

The purpose of mathematics education includes two important areas; cognitive area that emphasizes mathematical knowledge and understanding and affective area that stresses mathematical interest and attitude. The purpose of mathematics education is not only in acquiring the contents and knowledge but also rousing up interest and attention toward mathematics. Therefore, effort to accomplish this affective purpose has to be made. Introducing history of mathematics to teaching can be a important method for the students to arouse interest and attention toward mathematics. History of mathematics can help the students who are familiar to only manipulation of the symbols to develop a new way of thinking and mathematical thoughts arousing reflective thinking. According to the survey, although the effect of using mathematics history has been recognized, the mathematics history has neither been developed as teaching materials nor reflected in the courses of study. The purpose of this research is to develop the reading materials into suit for the mathematics curriculum to extract contents of the mathematics valuable in using in elementary mathematics teaching, and to investigate the effect of reading materials using the history of mathematics on learning attitude in elementary school. The way of developing materials in this study is as follows. First, to select the interesting and instructive subject for the elementary students such as the story and life of a mathematician, developmental stages of mathematical theory and calculation currently used and finding the patterns of the rules that requires mathematical thoughts. Second, to classify the selected items according to mathematics curriculum. Third, to reorganize the classified items of the appropriate grade with the reading materials of dialogue pattern in order to draw attention and interest from the students I developed 18 kinds materials in accordance with the above procedure and applied 5 materials among them to one class in 4th grade. Analysing the student's responses, First, using history of mathematics helps the students to arouse interest and confidence on mathematical learning attitude. And the students became better attitude of studying by oneself and attention on class. Second, as know by opinions after lesson, most students have a chance refresh one's thinking of mathematics, want to know the other content of history of mathematics and responded to study hard in mathematics. As a result, the reading materials on the basis of the history of mathematics motivates students for mathematics and helps them become confident in mathematics. If the materials are complemented properly, they will be useful and effective for students and teachers.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of teacher on fourth-grade students' attitudes toward mathematics using data from TIMSS 2011. Students' attitudes toward mathematics included interest in learning mathematics, interest in mathematics lessons, and confidence in their mathematics ability. Teacher factors included mathematics professional development, confidence in teaching mathematics, teacher-centered mathematics instruction, and enhancing student mathematical thinking. The two level Hierarchical Linear Model was employed to analyze the relationship between teacher factors and student attitudes. Results showed that teacher-centered mathematics instruction significantly and positively predicted students' confidence about their mathematics ability. The findings suggest that school systems and mathematics educators need to provide teachers with the curriculum, assessment, and research-based practices and knowledge to overcome the obstacles to change their mathematics classroom.
