Big data challenges of high-dimensional continuous-time mean-variance portfolio selection and a remedy by Chiu, Mei Choi, Pun, Chi Seng, Wong, Hoi Ying

“…The crux of the problem is the estimation error accumulated from the huge dimension of stock data. We then propose a linear programming optimal (LPO) portfolio framework, which applies a constrained ℓ1 minimization to the theoretical optimal control to mitigate the risk associated with the dimensionality issue. …”
